Sorry--No Pyramid!

I've finally come up with a design for my final (for class) Egyptian themed piece.  Sorry, no pyramids!  I'm going with lotuses all the way.  One on the front of the lentil and, hopefully, if time allows, on two glass beads.  Also, depending on the time, it will also be reversible with the eye of Horus on the back.

This will be my most involved metalwork to date, as I will be using 5 different metals.  I'm thinking bronze, sterling silver, copper and both 5% and 25% shibuichi.  The 5% shibuichi, hopefully, will appear as black and the 25% will appear somewhat darker than the silver.

What do you think?
