This was a custom design. The fleur de lis was the requested theme. The shape alone did not fit well on the panel, but by splitting it, interesting forms and negative spaces were created. Accented with gold leaf kuem boo and patina.

I found the rock in the center in Newfoundland (aka The Rock) in 2013. I was originally thinking it would be a pendant so I cut it into an oval. I was not feeling it so I decided to use it to embellish an old cedar box I had. I stitched the bezel and beads to a piece of cloth in a pattern echoing the stone. To attach it to the box I cut and flattened copper pipe to make a frame and painted the sides of the box. This was a project that started with no real vision of the final design. As I finished each step, I figured out the solution for the next.
