This is the first necklace in the "Bringing metal to life series". This oak leaf if cut from 1/16 steel...then textured, heated for color... and brought to life. Each vein of of the leave is carefully placed to resemble a real leaf. Just like the leaves on a tree each leave will turn out different... as far as color and texture. The final process involves clear coating for protection and shine.

Always happy to see you in the etsy forums.

Both of them are beautiful - but the leaf speaks to me the most. It really is a beautiful necklace.
Your work is just lovely, and so unique too! I like them both, but the tree is especially cool!
(Can I still use that term??)
Fabulous work Tim, as always. That is why you have my first Etsy hart.

Those are fantastic. I love the leaf one!
oooooh!!! i *love* the oak leaf!!
These are so gorgeous -- the oak leaf is my favorite. Very nice.
Tim - I'm partial to the oak leaf pendant. It's still edgy and rough, but so delicate and intricate. Fantastic work, as usual!
Great pieces! I gave your blog an Uber-Amazing Award:

Very nice, Tim. You do with metal what I do with polymer. Leaves rock!!
Really enjoy your work! I prefer the leaf.
Nice!
I really like the tree. Are you using the rivet as a cold connection or did you solder it?
contra... it is a cold connection.. it is a pop rivet!
Ah, very cool! I was just researching using cold connections and this is a great inspiration.
I'm going to have to try it someday.
your work is just wonderful - I just found your site and have already shared it with another. the leaf is really amazing!
Ohhh, I adore both of these. They are so lovely! I can't wait to see what you create next =)
