Lakeside Project

Lakeside Project

For this project we had to create a piece which was inspired by the artifacts at Lakeside Arts Center - Nottingham.
For my inspiration I chose these two iron age broaches.

 I made rings in bronze and silver using the lost wax casting process. I wanted the rings to have a rough edge to them, but have the same pattern as the broaches.

Here you can see the spru I used to cast the rings. - looks a lot like a belt buckle here!

Silver Ring:

Im planning on selling them as a set of stack able rings.

 

I need to polish them more in order to get a better shine out of them.
