It’s been a while since posting, (lot’s of background stuff going on!). Finally got to the creation laboratory and produced this today:
“Magic Mountain”
Vintage pocket watch case, watch parts, uranium glass, recycled wire
50mm x 30mm approximately
Whilst beach combing at Williamstown, Victoria beach a while back, we found this interesting shard of glass, which was duly cached with my sea glass stash. Something niggled in the back of my mind, so I shone a UV light on it, and behold, it was Uranium glass! Wanting to showcase it, I prepared a vintage black steel pocket watch case, adding new old stock glass, making a bow and fitting a decorative crown to complete it. The glass was mounted, and the dragon cut from an old wristwatch bridge plate. Watch rubies and gears were used as embellishments and the piece is complete. Uranium was added to glass as a colourant from shortly after it’s discovery in 1789. This shard could be over one hundred years old and doesn’t contain enough uranium to be dangerous - just pretty!

Uranium glass! Just like Tony Stark’s arc reactor.
Meet “Go Bug”! This little fellow spent his entire working life at the top of his game as the ”Green” in a traffic light, before being replaced. As he puts it, he “Got replaced by fifty LED’s. Yep, that’s progress, takes fifty of those little whippersnappers to do one job!” Now he’s free to fly off and see the world beyond this intersection.
He’s made from an old incandescent light globe, a spanner (NOT 10mm!),a spark plug, gold plated cutlery, rivets and rescued copper wire. Oh, and did I mention I made him so he glows in the dark?

“Captive Heart”
Opal Matrix (“Potch”), Amethyst, Sterling Silver
25mm approx
A friend who recently became engaged, did not want an engagement ring, but desired a pendant to commemorate with instead, and requested that I recreate something similar to one of my earlier creations.
I have cut and carved the opal matrix, which is a lovely dark gray, then shaped a piece of amethyst in a heart shape to set within. The whole was then cut back and hand polished to 7000 grit, (which imparts a sensuously smooth finish), and a bail which I made from sterling silver was attached.
The amethyst has flaws and inclusions which catch the light as it comes in from different angles, imparting a depth to the purple stone.

“Twilight Dreaming”
Purple Wattle, Blue Topaz, Silver
35mm x 20mm approximately
On a visit to the #losttradesfair, I met #creativesoultimber who showed me the amazing Purple Wattle (Acacia Carneorum) and allowed me to take some chips to experiment with. I came home and made this pendant, pairing the natural purple tone if the wood with a blue Topaz. It took a couple of attempts, the wood delightfully hard and close grained. I finished it with wax to enhance it’s natural beauty.

The wood is gorgeous
“Resurfacing”
Rescued railway scrap, red gum, brass, Japanese recycled glass fishing float
This is my entry into the Geelong Sculptors inc. “River and Place” exhibition at the The Papermill Gallery at Fyansford, near Geelong in Victoria. The exhibition runs until the 28th of December. If you are struggling to find a unique gift for someone special, head down there and check out the amazing creations!
My piece, open to your own interpretations of the title, shows a hand rising from below, gently cradling a sphere. The fingers were once railway track spikes and spent many years holding railway tracks in place, before being replaced as they aged and rusted. The reg gum plinth was rescued from and old fence post.

“The Golden Goose”
Sterling silver wristwatch case, pocket watch and wristwatch parts, rescued silver
25mm X 35mm approximately
Another impulsive purchase of watch parts from a watchmakers estate provided this hinged sterling silver watch case. Picturing an Art Deco inspired necklace, this is the result. The pocket watch bridge plate, complete with three rubies just needed a jewelled head to become a golden goose. I polished back an old face, revealing the brass beneath to represent the setting sun, and closed the hole with a brass watch gear, rescued silver forms the bail, and the whole becomes a locket. Polishing has removed decades of grime from the case, which still retains a patina of wear.
