One way to make dimensional shapes for jewelry is to create what is known as hollow form shapes. Hollow form jewelry pieces can be used for bangle bracelets, earrings, chains, etc. Both triangle pendants below are hollow form pendants, fabricated at my bench.

Hollow jewelry has an empty space or thin-walled interior, unlike solid jewelry which is entirely filled with material. This type of construction makes hollow pieces lighter and less expensive because they use lass material. Hollow pieces are a good option for larger, more intricate designs that would be too heavy or costly if made solid.

I enjoyed fabricating two versions of hollow form, textured, triangle pendant necklaces. One is 60’s inspired with beads, loops and links with twists of metal, holding it all together. The other more of a contemporary piece.
