I came up with the idea this morning and with hours I had the thing made. I went from drawing it on paper, cutting out the body and head out of copper sheet (which I then worked and hammered), I welded the head and body to copper bands that I had previously prepared. I finished it all off with a copper wire tail (hammered and welded into place).
I love how the head fits over the body when you put the rings on.. This is probably the most whimsical piece I've ever done so far.
Whenever I think of cats, it's because of my daughter in law; she is a cat lover!!! I actually was thinking about her when I designed the rings.
Although I made these out of copper, I will also make a set in sterling silver and copper (the bands will be sterling and the cat will be in copper). I believe this will be awesome!!
