The BezelWorks Pendant involves
the creation and management of a set of "anatomical"
parts. The challenges are many, and include creating
a piece where each individual component is enhanced
when brought together, but does not overwhelm. The
Center Piece must maintain its sense of focal point,
yet not dominate the other elements to the point
where they are immaterial, or less important, to
an appreciation of the whole finished piece.
