[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Second in a series.
This is a close-up detail of a brooche that is one of my own creations. The material is polymer clay and the technique used is called Mokume Gane after a Japanese metal-working technique of the same name. It involves the layering and deliberate distortion of different coloured artists modelling clays and metal foils. The object is fired, sanded and polished. No paint or varnish is involved

Bonjour Serge,
Un premier coup d'œil m'a intrigué, un examen plus détaillé et ta note me font découvrir une technique que j'ignorais.
La pièce entière doit être magnifique. J'adore ce mélange de textures aux éclats métalliques mais qui garde les tons de terre bien présents. Bravo à l'artiste autant qu'au photographe! Annie

Hello Serge. Good abstract macro, highly creative. Thanks for sharing.

Regards Phil.

P.S. Sorry I was out of green smiles this morning
