IONA HALL
Inspired by nature's inconsistencies and imperfections, organic lines and forms. The use of movement, colour and texture are an important factor to this work. .
GOLD WIRE EARRINGS
18 ct Red Gold earrings with silver posts. I made the gold wires from scratch, by melting percentages of copper, silver and fine gold to make red gold alloy. It started off as a little gold bean and I drew it down into 0.5mm wire. I made this design with red gold as it has more copper in it, making it easier to be drawn down to a thin gauge as the wires are stronger. The fine wires have a delicate movement to them when worn. This was a project I did at Bishopsland Educational Trust.
