The sun has a grained green heart and a ring of pointed rays, each a different colour — blue, red, yellow, violet. Rays that sharp are where the solder has to carry weight: the tip of each is a single point of glass, and the lead has to hold it all the way out. Below, a green heart hangs on wire as a charm, and at the end of the wire a string of clear stones, so the piece has something to catch the light as it turns.
