Silver Bracelet with Persian Design!

[a.khaksari]

Hi Everyone!
There's our new project with my daughter, Samira Khaksari!
She did the design and I did the engraving and gold inlay.

i think this is a beautiful piece. your daughter seems to be in perfect sync with the way you like to engrave. a great blend of techniques. what is the blue center stone ?

 

[a.khaksari]

Monk,
Thank you very much. Yes, she helps me a lot. She's studying handicraft in university and really interested in Persian patterns.
The stone is Turquoise from Neyshabour-Iran. This city is well-known for the best Turquoises. It was a bigger stone and I cut it to fit the bracelet.

Ali and Samira - Beautiful and thank you for posting.

Very nice design and engraving.

So you obviously had no problem with the gold inlay being loose after shaping the bracelet. I assume that the stone was set after bending.

Cropduster,
Thank you friend

Roger,
Thank you very much.
As you see in the first photo, I set the stone before bending.

That surprises me - I thought that you might have only put it in place for the photo

You're right, I work with my family. My wife, daughter and son and. My daughter is great in drawing persian patterns and is also a jewelry designer. My family is my best encourager and I'm really proud of them.

I've made a wooden fixture for it that causes no pressure on the stone or gold inaly parts.
