This sterling silver statement bracelet is made from little sterling tablets which depict an abstract image I first made as a printmaker in the late 1970's called "impressions of eight o'clock". To bring the print into silversmithing, I carved the image into brass first to be able to "print" the sterling silver, which I then fused onto another sheet of sterling silver. Many, many steps repeated six times went into the creation of this unique bracelet. So handmade? Absolutely as handmade as they come!
I made the size of this to fit anywhere from the wrist to more loosely over the wrist end of the hand the way most people wear a charm bracelet for example. The length is 8" but the way the clasp hooks on to the end effectively makes the bracelet about 7 1/2" long. Please measure with a soft tape measure to be sure this will fall where you like a bracelet to fall.
The tablets have been antiqued and to preserve the contrast the best method is to use a polishing cloth or a very gentle silver cleaner like Wrights.
