Pearly Pendants - 2: This is what I call Progressive Passes. Each cane slice started out the same size. It's just the lower levels get pressed and stretched more. The higher levels are pressed less, so they come out darker. The sculpted leaves come out the darkest because they are not pressed at all. So how do you do this?  First the outer ring of leaves are pressed going in four directions to even out the stretched design. Then the second layer of leaves are added, press four times. Then the third layer of leaves, press four times. Then I pinched from behind the sheet to get the dip for the vein. I pulled the sheet over my finger tips pushed up from behind to "bowl" out the leaves and stretch out the design more. Add the last two slices as sculpted leaves that makes the loop for the chord and call it a day.
