About
There is something about the designs on these that remind me of partridges.
What, pray tell, is Micarta? You may be asking right now.
Well, Micarta is the perfect marriage of fiber and resin. I can’t tell you what the past life of this particular bit of Micarta is but I can tell you that it could have been anything from a portion of a space shuttle to a guitar fingerboard. What I do know is that I found a nice chunk of it floating in the waste stream and decided to make something pretty.
Because I only have this one piece and I can’t be guaranteed to find another anytime soon I will only be making Micarta jewelry til I run out.
