Found object

I had found this gorgeous piece of metal in the scrap bin in the studio, so naturally, I captured it. This semester, one of our assignments was to make a piece with a found object in it, which is something that really interests me. I am attracted to the idea of making jewelry with unusual object other than stones and pearls, etc.




I am still not totally sure of what metals this piece contains but I am still extremely attracted to it. I made a frame and bands to turn this beauty into a ring. Organic shape but left with a satin finish. Kind of a weird one but I like strange things! Metal upon metal with many colors for contrast.
