Copper & Brass, Tribal, Ethnic Inspired, Unique Bracelet, Handmade, on sale One of a Kind, 1" x 6 1/2" - CT013

This is a handmade hammered copper bracelet adorned with a forged brass traditional tribal motif. It is lightweight and comfortable but very strong. It is inspired by an ethnic, tribal, simple but elegant design. Wearing this will initiate conversations that invariably begin with, "Where did you get this?"

I created this in my home studio starting out with sheet copper and brass wire. This is a very labor intensive process involving hours of production time. Steps involved in its creation include cutting, hammering, annealing, soldering, shaping, tumbling to polish and harden, oxidizing, buffing, and coating with 4 coats of clear lacquer.

The bracelet is 1 inch wide and is 6 1/2 inches in circumference including a 1 1/4 inch gap. It comfortably fits a 6 – 7 inch wrist. Horizontal diameter is 2 1/4 inches with vertical diameter of 2 inches. It is slightly adjustable.

Measure your wrist with a fabric tape measure or on sale a piece of paper that you then hold next to a ruler. Measure at the level of your wrist at which you will be wearing your bracelet. Some prefer to wear a cuff bracelet low on the wrist, near the hand. Others prefer to wear a bracelet above the wrist bone.

This is a one-of-a kind item although I may make some cuffs with a similar, although not identical design, in the future.
