the Brooch
 
  Our collaboration was to be a piece of jewelry, and of the gates we saw at the White House. We decided to call the piece of work "East meets West". The brooch is 3 inches wide, and has an environment for when it is not worn. It also has a hand tooled chain.  
     
     
 

 
  Andrea made the West Gates out of gold, with diamonds and gemstones.  
     
     
 

 
  My part, the East Gates, is cut from paper, with gold leaf stars and eagles.  
     
     
 

 
 
  The environment, Which hangs on the wall, is about 11 inches x 12 inches, has anti reflective glass, black velvet interior, and a compartment for storing the chain.
