Artist's Comments

This is my very first custom, commissioned piece of jewelry. It was created as a truly unique anniversary gift. The individual for whom it was created has an affinity for satyrs, and so she requested that I create a Faery Mask of a female satyr. We discussed color schemes, and decided on a palette primarily of yellow-greens and olive-greens with some pale yellows and dark reds as accent colors. After her approval of some preliminary sketches, I began to sculpt the mask itself. This mask in particular proved to be much more challenging than previous ones. There are actually wire armatures within the horns and both of the ears to lend additional support to those portions.

measurements • adjustable necklace is approximately 17.5"-19.5" in length with handmade clasp • the mask itself, not including the beaded adornments, is approximately 2" wide by 1.25" in length at its greatest points

materials • hand-sculpted and hand-painted polymer clay Faery Mask pendant; freshwater pearls; genuine garnet beads; swarovski crystal beads; glass beads; ribbon; copper wire; copper leaf charms

This piece was awarded the honor of being a Daily Deviation on 8/12/2006. Photography by ~mybluestar

Although this particular piece has been sold, there are numerous pieces still available for sale displayed in my DA gallery as well as at Phée Adornments.

Phenomenal. So much detail in so small a piece. I have enough of those beads to be able to really visualize the size and damn, it's wonderful. I always ending up breaking sculpy. And you have such tiny bits. I love the ears and the veining on them :)
