Seahorse Variants

Bony trunk rings and a coiled prehensile tail make the seahorse an ideal subject for photo-etched brass. The etching process uses narrow cutouts to define the steep nape and small dorsal fin across the earring, pendant, and brooch forms. I appreciate how both the gold-tone and silver-rhodium finishes emphasize this segmented surface texture while keeping the actual jewelry physically light.
