A Doggy Portrait in Precious Metal Clay
I can finally now show you my first precious metal clay little sculpture. Well, sculpture might give you the wrong idea but it’s a non-abstract three-dimensional form.
I had to wait with this post until I could get the pendant to the person it was meant for. It was a sort of belated Christmas surprise.
So, here it is.
I did not plan out this pendant at all. I had a ball of silver PMC left because I was working on another piece when the idea hit me. It was the kind of “I wonder if I can” thought. Honestly, I never really expected it to turn out well. I used a photo as a reference and next thing I knew, it actually looked like her.
I am quiet proud of it and I think I made someone happy as well. It hardly can get any better than that!

GlassFancy is all about fused glass jewelry. I work with non-dichroic art glass mostly made by the Bullseye glass company. You will find a large selection of pendants, some brooches and earrings at my online stores. I also make fused glass cabinet knobs & pulls. A colorful and up-beat accent for tired furniture!
Many of the pendants, brooches and earrings have 99.9% pure silver inclusions and all of the wire and bails I use are sterling silver.

Thank you, Ruth!
It’s based on a friend’s dog. Her name is Salty and she passed away a couple of months ago. Her human had a very hard time with her passing so I made this for her.
