“My mystic phul”

Got this really beautiful mystic topaz which I intend to use for my next piece...love the fact that it reflects warm colours...fits in perfectly with my “Indian theme”

Ways of adding colour...

Been trying to find ways of adding colour to my jewellery but I wasn't sure how to do it. After consulting with Terry Hargeaves, he suggested that I try using an epoxy with pigment to my jewellery. It works like a resin.

I decided to try this after I saw a test piece that Terry showed to me, I was very impressed with the result, think it would compliment my jewellery. The colours that I tried were more on the warm side as wanted to stick with colours that resembled Mendhi. The great part of the epoxy is that I can work from home which makes life easier.
