Hello, good times on Steemit!


  • When a ticking watch doesn't 'tick' anymore, doesn't mean that it's all gone... it may be fixed, but there are times when it's value doesn't depends on it's functionality... And maybe then becomes even more valuable...


    More than that, a memory has no functionality or price, it's just like a sunshine warming your heart... And in the case of this watch, time lost it's importance, and became an endless moment of love...


    The story behind this jewelry is very emotional, and I created it with all my heart... maybe the final results it's not perfect, but this jewelry is filled with sweet tears and great thoughts...
    At the same time I want to be discrete regarding my client's story, but I'll share with you a little part of the story...
    She had a broke watch from her father, and wanted to wear it daily... But didn't know how, because all she had left was the body of this watch, and she was calling it the "watch soul"...
    And we decided to put in in a silver open back bezel, and give it a new purpose and a new life!
    Another Interesting detail was that the clock had to be set at a certain hour....



    Here are some certain details where you can see the making off process of this pendant...
    I have custom order silver bezels of 2, 2.5 and 3cm. We had to chose the one where the watch fitted better...

    The medium size bezel was the winner, even the 2cm bezel fitted perfectly the watch mechanism. I poured resin on it, making sure I sealed the back of the bezel, and left it overnight. After it cured, I had to pour another stage of resin on the backside of the resin to deal with imperfections...

    And this is what it came out!
    A jewelry from my soul for a beautiful soul, for a beautiful story, for a beautiful memory 💞
