I’m trying to get as many items finished in time for Christmas. Here is a basic little solar system made with resin and glass that would be a unique gift for someone interested in all things celestial.  It’s only an inch wide and half an inch deep.  The planets “hover” suspended in water clear resin above the fine copper clock hairspring.  I dusted some holographic glitter on the black background - it’s very subtle with colour flashes only visible while moving the piece around in the light.  I love sparkle but I didn’t want it to look like a cheap christmas bauble or snow globe. All the planets are in order and relative size within reason.  The planets are also in different metallic colours - silver, copper and gold. Saturn has her ring. It’s mounted on a vintage brass gear.  I have it on a fine brass and black ball necklace that also sparkles with movement.  If you are buying the piece for a man it can be put on a black rubber or leather cord.  It should be worn high on the body/neckline.  It’s understated yet very unique and sure to evoke comments and break the ice at gatherings at this time of year.  It is available in my Etsy store. -- source link
