2.17.2016 - San Antonio Concepcion Mission
Still as working church, this mission was gorgeous - I especially loved the artistry in small details. The Moorish influence shown in the arches and keys, clean lines and tilework... very nice - so much so that at times I felt transported back in time.
How's this for a very cool set of door hardware? I make my ear wires much the same manner as the handle's curl. Very nice. Most perplexing for me were the door hinges. I assume they were the semblance of two eye screws... but knowing how hard it can be to open a jumpring made from 14ga sterling... how do you suppose the hinges were put onto the doors? Certainly not opening the rings and inserting then closing the ring... very cool.
