Blog Task: Week 5

Jane Dodd




'Fleeced!' brooch 
18ct gold, lignum vitae

This artist has made a brooch from gold and wood. I think she did this by carving the wood shaping it into a tree which connects to a piece of gold thats been carved to look like roots. Intwining the two pieces of material as one. I do like this piece i think its quite unique and has a bit of character but personally I wouldn't wear it I think its a bit too old fashion.



Cobra, 2007
Sterling silver, Ebony, Black Diamond

Jane Dodd has made a different kind of snake design using sterling silver as the head of the cobra but changing it up as it goes onto the ebony piece of wood making it look quite abstract and different. I think she used the same techniques to create this piece as the first one but put a bit more detail into it with the eyes and tongue on the snake.
