cherry hues Sculpture

This is my first paired piece. Cut from a single piece of cherry that a gardener friend gave me many years ago and a single piece of traditionally fusion welded Mokume Gane. I played with the colours I could get from the usual patina process many times, but decided to try a new technique, of electroplating a layer of nickel over the copper, using heat to achieve colours which wouldn't stay well on copper alone when waxed. The centres were scrubbed back to bare metal about twenty times before I was happy.
