The Tarbh (bull) or minotaur torc, and the Bó (cow) pendant. This massive beast took me ages to complete. And when I say massive, I mean MASSIVE. Each head, on it's own, came in at around and about 28 grams PER piece! The total of the torc, comes in at around 175 grams!
The torc is made of a thick noble-steel braid, and the heads are silver, with 24k gold accenting on the 'collar' braid and the balls on top of the horns. Each head carries 2 Lapis Lazuli stones on the cheeks, 2 Amber stones for the eyes, and in between the horns we find a piece of Garnet. 5 stones per head making up the ten stones for the entire torc. The eye sockets are roughly drilled out on the inside, which therefor reflect light from almost every angle it's held in, making the Amber pieces SHINE. It looks amazing in person.
The pendant is a female version, but carries the same gold detailing and stonework. The only difference is that the end of this pendant carries a giant 9mm Onyx stone. The pendant hangs from a cord that runs through the mouth of the cow.
Up to date, my biggest project. A lot of nightmare scenarios passed it's process, and it was a lot of difficult work. But in the end, WELL worth the trouble.
Oh. My. Gods. I think I fell off my chair looking at those. Then I got back up and spent the nest ten minutes drooling uncontrollably. What absolutely beautiful peices of art. Congratulations.
