I used cutting in the Mokume Gane Pods that I posted. https://forum.lettucecraft.com/t/mokume-gane-ish-pod/2748
The pendant in this necklace is one of those pods. Was that the technique you were referring to?
Yellowstone has so many gorgeous hot springs! It’s been ages since I’ve seen them in person, but I do get to see photos fairly regularly! Nature is amazing!!
The turquoise in this pod made me think of tropical seas and since the turquoise in this pod is in the recessed area or “depression” it seemed like a good choice for a name! Naming jewelry pieces is still sort of a new thing to me.
