My searhead--forgotten and found

I found this project not long ago.  I haven't thought of that spearhead in a long time.  It was a spearhead out of metal that I made while I was taken my jewelry classed near my workplace.  I made this spearhead from the lost wax technique.  I made it in wax and send it to get it in the end result, as seen above.  I show both side of the spearhead.  On one side, there is an hole and on the otherside, there is two holes.  They are small and are a bit difficult to see on the photo.  I think it was hard for the one in charge of my wax mold.  I took that spearhead as it was.  I think that the small holes give it  a certain charm.

It does not show the drilled holes on the site, on the right side.  I intend to put that spearhead on a chain.  I will have to find a chain small enough to go through the hoes but strong enough to hold the weight of the spearhead.  Or I put a heavy dury thick wire in a wire warpping way or do some eyelets.  I would put a chain in the eyelets.

It was nice to find that spearhead.  It is mainly finish, as a project.  Not much is needed to finish it.  It is the kind of project that I like to make.  It wasn't that easy to make it, especially the finish, the pattern on the spearhead.  It wasn't my idea but it was a good one, as I look at the result.
