Van Gogh Earring - YOJ Week 19

Well I've been busy making jewellery this week but not on theme.  I'm still messing around with the Japanese weave chainmaille.  I decided to have a go with some stainless steel rings I bought ages ago. Stainless Steel is a whole different ball game from sterling.  It is tough!  My pliers kept slipping, my wrists ached, and generally, I decided it is not going to be my material of choice.  So back in the drawer all those Stainless Steel jumprings go....The result from my efforts was one earring, and no it's not going to get a mate.  I may convert it into a pendant one of these days though.
