When you make jewelry your family always
wants some for their holiday gift. This
one was selected by my Sister from over 30 different options. Inside Oakwood we call it “Sister’s Choice”.
All of Oakwood’s jewelry is Sterling Silver
hand finished and highly polished. The
result is, all of the pieces surfaces are highly reflective, in some cases, as
good or better than a mirror. However,
instead of being flat like a mirror the pendant surface are warped and
twisted. This makes them very difficult
to photograph, because they reflect everything and many artifacts show up in
the pictures. The dark areas you see in
the left photo is an image of the camera lens hitting a twisted highly
reflective surface. In the center photo,
the piece has been twisted and canted to minimize the image of the camera lens,
but you still can see the lens in different areas of the part. As you walk across a room wearing the
pendant, it’s reflecting surfaces that are already warped and twisted, are
shifting, changing and reflecting back different images and colors from all
over the room. It the photo on the far
right (a different part) you can see what happens when we allow all the room
colors to reflect off the part. In this
picture, we took no care to achieve a great picture we just took the
picture. You can imagine how these
pieces look in a room with colored lights as you might have at a dance, on
stage or at Christmas.
Also available in earrings.
