I made this pendant necklace using the Tiffany technique of soldering to this old crystal chandelier. I used lead free solder, added embellishments, filed for smoothness and a patina which achieves an aged pewter or rustic look. The pendant hangs from a recycled silk sari ribbon and this one-of-a-kind lovely has been gifted.
I had the pleasure of this little visitor yesterday afternoon - although he didn't stay around for long. I think this is a male Autumn Meadowhawk. He is a smaller dragonfly with a red body and iridescent wings. He rested on my knee for close to a minute then flew away. It was a nice calming visit with nature that I really enjoyed.
