Nice!

FidelaTresori:
Thank you, Sandy.  They look fairly simple, and they were once the idea formed, but that part of the process is what took some time.

Sometimes when I find really awesome antique or vintage components, I leave them sit for a really long time until I'm feeling particularly creative out of fear that what I make won't do them justice.

Lovely work! Shared  8)

FidelaTresori:
Thank you so much,  Andrew. 

I want to make a couple of tiny rivets to finish these off.  The hands are already very secure on these hoops, but it can't hurt to be extra sure since they are about 100 years old.

ETA: Rather than mar the front with rivets, I had my husband do a little soldering on the back where it can't be seen.
