Reticulated silver is a process where the metal is soaked in a mild acid bath and then heated to not quite the melting point. Then, it is repeated four or five times. This gives the metal the "wrinkled" look. This one is set with an Australian opal with parts of it purposefully left "pitted" to blend in with the reticulation more. (5 years and 3583 days ago)

This is my favorite shot of a chimney cap that i designed and built from flat sheets of 20oz copper. The finished dimentions were approximately 7'long by 4'wide and 4' tall. As I built this the copper is covered in a sheet of plastic as to not scratch the metal. After it was all put together I peeled all the plasic off (this took hours in itself) I turned the lights off in the shop and used a flashlight to illuminate the copper. What you are looking at is a view from one of the corners. I have full pictures of this piece installed and I am most proud of the job I did on this. It is truly a one of a kind.

This was a schoolproject. Everything from build to design was done by me and two classmates. (5 years and 3581 days ago)
