Iron Pet

This is one of my new direction:  using 3 D stones.  This was an uneven several in thick Petoskey Stone from Lake Superior.  Petoskey stones are created from coral, then calcified.  This polished surface has wonderful depth of color.  The pendants are faceted Tiger Iron with accents of Tiger Iron beads.  The Florida Long Leaf pine needles and Muhly Grass that I grow and harvest make a symphony of muted color.  Prize: Third Place, Work of He(art), Art Center Sarasota , February, 2019.

Approximate size:  8.5 x 7 x 3.5 inches
