Copper wire has been coiled, hammered, and polished to a beautiful finish to form this stunning bracelet. Copper has been lightly torched to create a subtle patina that catches the light and reflects pinks, blues and purples. Bracelet measures approximately 8", with a hand formed hook and loop spiral clasp.

This choker features a mixture of blue semi-precious stones, glass, vintage and crystal beads along with silver findings strung onto silver wires. The body of this unique necklace was created from gently-hammered silver wire that forms gentle curves reminiscent of ocean waves.

Choker is firm, but can be molded to fit shape of your neck, and has a silver chain on either side to allow for adjustability. Length is approximately 17-1/2" in total.

Silver has been naturally oxidized to create more depth and contrast in the piece.

This necklace is truly one of a kind!

A slight "twist" on the traditional wire wrapped nest, three Robin's eggs are caught up in a circle of oxidized copper wire. The "eggs" are a beautiful vintage pale blue, glass bead with flecks and veins of brown.

Necklace is completely hand-formed, each link is wrapped and twisted to create a delicate chain. Chain measures 26", but can be hooked on different links to make shorter. I can also adjust the necklace if desired
