Metal Abstraction

This fun little piece doesn't look like Larkin's usual work but that didn’t stop it from jumping off their workbench the other day!

They have been making little copper bowls to hold works in progress, components, and various other bits and bobs. They were so charmed with the way the edges of the metal crinkled that they just *had* to incorporate tiny metal bowls into something. So this... flower? birds nest complete with eggs? was born!

The leaves and little balls/anthers/eggs are hand-shaped from sterling and Larkin added an across-the-neck style silver chain and handmade clasp to complete the piece.
