Themed with nature-inspired leaves and vinework, with a Lord of the Rings, magical Elvin twist, sterling silver wire and ivy leafwork borders a center 18x13mm gemstone cabochon, and to which this one is a moonstone. I love making these kinds of cuffs...I'm not sure what the appreciation value may be but if you like whimsy, fantasy and ethereal kinds of jewelry, then perhaps I've captured a bit of that here!

Thanks so much! It is a bit different but would you believe I actually made this bracelet about 3 years ago? I put it away for a few years and then pulled it back out, set the stone, and kind of fell in love with it afterward.
By the way, it's nice to see you talking about your works like this. Even though I know you must be a poetic person to even start doing this kind of jewellery, and give them those fantastical names, their descriptions usually sound more like an advertisement filling a demand than an artist introducing a work they feel about in some way. Even though I always knew it can't be true, I still couldn't help having such an impression. I don't have it anymore, reading this reply
Thanks! I don't manufacture at all. I handmake everything, individually. No casting or anything. Just cut out the designs, from sterling silver, then solder and apply as the creative muse strikes.
I really admire your designs, being a strictly hand manufacturer of jewellery, I must say that your twisted wire, doesnt have the crispness that I would expect, that was why I was asking all the questions Your leaves do make up for it
Ah, I see. Well, the twist wire on this bracelet is pre-fab wire I use, but I can make twist wire, and have for many variations. Also, as I look at this picture, it's pretty muted and looks unpolished, although it is...my photos never quite reveal the jewelry quite the same as in person. That's my largest struggle with photography!

I must ask, how do u manufacture? cast? and from what source? do you carve the wax?
Your leaves do make up for it
