This is the new Almond Rod cuff...it is 1 inch by 6 inches, sterling silver. I use chasing tools, which date back to the 3rd Century BC. This technique works best for me, because you can make virtually any design, although it takes longer. God speaks to my heart and gives me new ideas, so I need this flexibility.
First you have to draw it on the metal with a pencil. The tools are small iron rods with straight or curved lines on the bottom, of different sizes. You hold it in your left hand, balancing the tool on the metal, and hammer with your right hand. This cuff has a repousse design,which you can see makes the leaves and almonds raised. This is done using dapping tools.
The Almond Rod, Numbers 17:8, is a symbol of authority given by God to Aaron. He was being challenged in his position and God showed he was designated by having his rod bud and blossom, while the others did not. This is important for believers in Jesus,Yeshua, because we will run into opposition...even doubting thoughts of our own. God has given us authority for the calling we have from Him to fulfill. We must use it. These are the Last Days before His return and the battles are raging, but we can stand victoriously by faith...bringing restoration, setting the captives free. sharing gospel of the Kingdom.
Each of the King Lives Jewelry pieces has a Scripture meaning and comes with a Scripture scroll. Each has a different design and you will see lots of variety. There is no other jewelry like it...beautifully handmade, with a meaning and purpose, as well as a valuable piece of artwork....a wise investment in more than one way!
