Final Project – Steel
Ohio University – 2017
Based on the research picture, I designed a bent steel torque that captured 6 stones. Each piece was individually bent and then brazed at two points. Each smaller piece was then bent around its stone before being slightly unbent to release the stone and then brazed on to the main section. Using copper wire, I both secured the stones and started to hide some of my brazes. I then added more copper wire and brass wire to tie the whole piece together.
