Description Enamelled magpie pendant with a bezel-set rose garnet.

The magpie itself is hand drawn and made up of around 35 individually fired layers of powdered glass. (yeah; I know. This is an exceptionally bad photo) I had to do it twice, as the first go-round I got bumped taking it out of the kiln, dropped it, and it fused to the laquer on the concrete floor. Had to break it off with a hammer. Was not a happy camper.

Ah well. Can't win 'em all.

(On a side note; These are, in fact, 2 views of the same piece.)

I like the bottom one better, but they're both excellent.

The bottom has a cleaner feel to it, while the top one "distracts from itself"

They're actually the same pendant; The bottom is a back view of the top. It's pretty much revesible.
