I wanted to follow the lines of the base pewter as I fused the colored resin in place on this necklace and earring set. It is interesting how the resin conforms to all the ridges and low spots.

I have collected some pieces of pewter in the Byzantine style.  My new process is to fuse colored resin on the pewter to form colorful pieces of jewelry. The resin is heated to a semi-liquid state and applied to the metal. It is then cooled quickly in ice to keep its form.  A coating of clear resin is brushed on to protect the jewelry.
