stainless steel woven tubing, aluminum, brass
The ornamented sections of Celestia Major are comprised of two articulated loops, both created from heavy gauge, stainless-steel tubing with an aluminum core. Endlessly tailorable for every neckline while remaining stiff enough to require no clasp. The end caps are ornamented with various brass casings. This particular piece has basic brass end caps.
Adam's early metal smithing interests and development started while taking welding and blacksmithing courses in Vancouver and Nelson B.C where he focused on making small metal sculptures and home decor. In 2005 he traveled to Mexico and apprenticed under master silversmiths Antonio and Enrique Lopez . They are a father and son team with a long history of teaching and jewellery making in San Miguel de Allende. 2006 Adam returned to San Miguel de Allende and was accepted into Billy Kings, Sterling Quest School of Silver Jewelry Design And Creation. Adam has made handcrafted metal and glass jewelry in Mexico, Brazil, Vancouver and Edmonton.
