Idle Talons

More Solder Play

process, musingsLarkin HamiltonComment

These are neither a matched set nor a finished product, but they needed to be hung to photograph-- All the shaky, sparkly little dangling bits don't lay flat well. This is a copper and lapis lazuli design that has been floating around in Larkin's head for some time but wrapping alone didn't leave them rigid enough. The one on the left has solder-only connections and the one on the right has wrapped connections that have been stabilized with solder. Which would you prefer once the joints have been neatened up?
