The Tempting Gold Pendant Top
I had been holding onto this piece of gold for a long time, unable to decide what to do with it — and I finally managed to turn it into a pendant. Unfortunately, during the process a bit of silver ended up getting mixed in, which I regret. If possible, I would have preferred to use nothing but pure gold.
In any case, I’m not particularly satisfied with the design itself, so I’m thinking of recreating it someday when I get another chance.
Process:
- Prepare a gold tooth as the material.
- Melt it using a gas burner.
- Hammer it flat with a mallet.
- Shape it by filing the surface.
- Polish it with metal polish (Pikal).
