This 9ct yellow gold elephant pendant was handmade for someone who had spent time in Goa, in particular, an overnight stay with the elephants.
The elephant was carved from a block of wax. Firstly, cutting the very basic shape of the elephant from the wax. I was then able to carefully add more fine details of the elephant using dentist tools. Once I was happy with the wax carving it was then used to be cast in 9ct yellow gold. The finishing process could then begin using emery papers and polish.
