It is very well done, and as I said. looks like something from the ancient
world. I wonder if he was trying to emulate that style.

Eric- Tell us about this particular piece. Where did you photograph it? When
and where was it made? It looks like it could be ancient in origin. Looks
similar to some Roman and Phoenician jewelry I saw at a museum exhibition not
too long ago.
Jay,
I shot it in the rotunda at work, which serves as the main entrance for the
company in Carlsbad. We normally have some kind of gemstones and/or jewelry on
display all the time. Right now the them is gold.
And I misspoke, it's not graining, but granulation. It's by an artist from
Italy. He does a lot of pieces like this. In fact, the museum director asked me
to shoot the display cases of his work because she had been describing it as
being a great place to be on display because the light is so beautiful in that
area. I shot some this morning, but I'm going to shoot next week when the time
has shifted and the light is better early in the morning.
I'll have more information later to share.
