This is a small (+-20 cm's in length) bronze sailboat which i made for merina to put on the gravestone of her father.
It was quite difficult to make every piece to fit the other pieces and then put them all togheter with small bits of hot, liquid silver. and when that was ok, i stil had to ptinate it, for it was shiny yellow and needed to become about red-brown coloured.
something that was very diffecult and in which i dind't succeeded, but a lot of attempts later i stil managed to make something nice of it, luckely..
This picture shown here is made during the production proces, i will put a new one when it's placed on its stone. (if they let me take that picture)

this is a lovely piece, it's fitting that you should have a chance to put so much care into creating it considering its purpose.
