Thorny Knowledge

Happy anniversary to me!

These three pieces are something special. You see, over a dozen years ago, before I was a beastie maker I was making jewelry with PMC3, a fine silver metal clay. As the price of silver rose, I switched to bronze. Then a decade ago I made my first beastie.

That’s right, the beasties are now 10 years old! And to celebrate, I wanted to make one big beastie in .999 fine silver.

Since I am incapable of making just one piece, I also made two little book beasties.

This listign is for the taller of the two books, a sharp thriller if ever I saw one.

Knowledge isn’t ever free, and sometimes it takes a spiny, spiky book beastie to remind us of that. Oh they might not even mean to hurt you. I don’t see any malice on that face, but reader be ware all the same.

Small piece, only an inch high. Standard playing card deck for reference
