chasing, repousse Honey Bees and one Fish

Bee Bracelet #1

was completed the day I had to send it out to the buyer

so there really isn't a good photo of it.

Bee Bracelet #2
is done.

Both are of Aluminum, 

sealed with a unique laquer brought to my attention by Golden Paints. 

The earlier fish bracelet, also aluminum,

 has been worn nearly daily 

by a coffee shop owner for the past nearly 5 years.  

There is no trace, or sign of sealer failure, 

or any kind of discoloring, or marking on skin. 

It's pretty remarkable stuff.

More metal found HERE.
