Balinese Filigree Donut Pendant

I had so much fun making a filigree donut for my swap partner in the bargain hunter swap that I decided to make another one.  I planned ahead for this one by covering a base when I made the violet mokume gane.

Having a base of clay to work on made the process go a little faster, it also made the pendant a little thicker.

I like how it looks when all the snakes are applied, but it really starts to pop when the texture is added.Baking the clay makes it a little darker.  I don’t usually do any sanding on filigree, just a good buffing with the dremel to give it a nice satin finish.  All it needs now is a gold bail and it’s ready to go!
