Poseidon's Dinner Fork

This Sterling Silver fork is part of a dinner set I created using the mythology of Poseidon as its theme. The fork has three tines to represent Poseidon's Trident he used during the war of the titans, and gods.

As you can see, the tines are actually the tail fin of the fish, while the tip of the handle is the head complete with mouth and eye.

Sterling Silver Length: 8 inches

Mirror, Mirror, Tell me who is the Fairest...





Over the years, Gwen and I have attended many art and craft shows. I made this copper mirror so women at our jewelry booth would have something fun to hold and look into.




An example of the folding technique on the back. Here, you can also see more of the copper rivets I fashioned and hammered to hold things together.

In case the mirror was to break, there are a couple of semi-hidden tabs on the sides that will allow the back to be pulled out far enough so new glass can be slid in. Notice that it can also be hung on a wall, which is what we do in the house.

Hand made copper mirror. 19" x 7½" x 1¾". Personal collection.
