Lura's Bracelet

I finished this bracelet just in time to send it off to my dear friend Lura to wear on her anniversary and birthday. It is my first experience working with Hadar's new "Quick Fire" Bronze Clay and I LOVE IT!!
It is a dream to work with, doesn't warp and has minimal shrinkage. As well, it is so easy to fire and I am told that one could torch fire little copper pieces. More on that later!
The bracelet is made of fine silver PMC as well as Hadar's "Quick Fire" Bronze . The links are made of fine silver wire. I have found that using a little bigger gauge wire gives a studier link and the ends ball up so nicely. 
Lura is thrilled with her new piece of jewelry and I love to think of her wearing something of mine.
Check out her artwork sometime at http://www.lura-art.com/ You will be amazed!
