Sun Diamond

diameter: 4", length: 5"

top: 2020, bottom: 2024

one strip imported Italian paper each, pearlized headpins, tassels

These ornaments utilized 34 headpins for embellishment.  They required careful measuring in order to achieve their symmetry.  I'm showing one of the original pieces I created at the top, and in 2024 I made the bottom ornament., which involved hand-coloring 171 squares to achieve a more dramatic effect.
