Sterling and 14k gold. Approx. 4.5 inches.
A wedding gift for my son and his wife. This fairly traditional cross was constructed from two pieces of heavy-gauged square Sterling wire with a bail of 14k gold wire. It required quite a bit of hand work to get the edges square and sharp. In order to keep the cleanness I did all the polishing by hand using increasingly finer gritted sand paper then polishing compounds on leather then flannel. Sometimes the pieces that look the simplest require the most effort.

This is beautiful Jack. So much love goes into each piece you create. Hope all is well.
