Aren't these great? I love how warm and shiny these octopi look in bronze!
I love these owls cast in bronze and shibuichi! It was alot of fun setting the eye stones. I found some beautiful rose cut garnets and sparkly black spinels, polished cabachons in opal, moonstone, garnet, turquoise, peridot, jade, lapis, carnelian and iolite. I kind of went crazy with the gemstones! They still need silver wire bails to finish them, but I like positioning them around my desk.
Since this project turned out so well, I'm inspired to make more little jointed and jeweled lovlies! Anyway, I have loads of stones to set! Greg liked the idea of a toad or frog. I thought a cat or monkey would be pretty neat. We'll just have to see what happens.....

Cat for sure!
WOW, these really turned out nice :)
I love the look of the bronze!
LOVE LOVE LOVE! When will we be able to buy these?? My impatient little hands wants one of those owls O_O
I agree with Andrew a cat for sure.
I just had a great idea though (I would want it anyway) a bat with gemstone eyes and outstretched wings with the holes in the tip of the wings for a pendant or bracelet component.

I want one of these owls I hope they are available soon!!!
Fabulous Cynthia, You really are so talented. I love the idea of the bat with gemstone eyes. I little sugar glider would be nice, too. I cant wait to purchase these new things.
Seriously cute! How about a little Scottie dog? I like the idea of the monkey too. Or maybe a dragon with an articulated body? I had this faboo pair of earrings in the 80s that were these bronze dragons. Lost one, don't know where the other one is but I loved them so and am always seeking something to replace them!
Nice work, Cynthia!
Enjoy the day!

I so LOVE these and add me to the group asking for a cat! When will they be available?
I haven't posted here before, but I adore Green Girl items and have a huge stash. Lately, I have fallen deeply in love with the new bronze items. I won't even make anything with my stash unless I have a minimum of 2 duplicate pieces left - that's HOW much I love my GG stash. LOL.
Have you ever considered doing an Orca whale?
Anyway, I can't wait for all of your new items to be available.
I can't believe how cool those owls are!! Love the moveable head and cool eyes. I need one or ten...
Such Wonderful work Cynthia! Remarkable. Maybe one will fly to my house soon lol!
These are all too cute for words.
OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG! O. M. G.
Cynthia--are the owls available for purchase? WANT!
I LOVE these owls especially! So pretty. I hope you'll be selling them sometime soon! They remind me somehow of characters out of The Return to Oz...
