Hi All,

Here is a sterling silver pendant I carved some time ago which I would like to share with you. I requested to take a picture of it from one of my best friends and colleague from Berlin, Germany for whom I made it for. While we were visiting him (me and my wife), it was a lucky coincidence that we had a chance to see one of the most well-known vine festivals in Berlin which is held every year in August, being the Bernkastel-Kues Wine Festival (31 August-4 September). Here I’m posting some pictures from that little village with all its hills covered with grapevines and river passing below the hills which I think you’ll enjoy looking. I certainly would suggest everyone to go and see that little village, it really has an astounding view. Very delicious wines too <_<

Best Regards.

Thank you for the photographs of that part of the world near Berlin, and for showing us the special piece. Is the rose tile a part of the pendant? I do enjoy the lively rose patterns.

Hello Janel,

I'm sorry, I forgot to write what the rose tile was all about. The rose tile is carved on a separate sheet of sterling silver, just for practice purposes. It's a practice plate another words. After it was finished I gave it to one of my jeweler friends and he cut it in to pieces, cast them, and use it in making new gold bracelets.

Best regards,

ekrem.

Lovely work Ekrem.

The village makes me nostalgic for "simpler" times.

Thanks, Jim
