Bracelets & Bangles

My bracelets and bangles range from bold statement cuffs to more delicate linked chains, but they all share the same foundation – hand-forged metal and honest construction.

The bangles I make are substantial pieces, often with heavily textured surfaces that catch the light. I work them to feel solid but never clunky, and the organic textures mean they sit comfortably on the wrist. Some are simple silver, others incorporate 18ct gold accents or cabochon stones.

For link bracelets, I forge each component individually – whether it’s chunky textured rings in silver, or finer 18ct gold links with toggle clasps. I’m drawn to the rhythm of repetitive work, and creating chains link by link feels meditative. The finished pieces have weight and presence.

I also work with natural materials – amber, agate, and other semi-precious stones – combining them with handmade silver elements. These pieces feel more ancient somehow, like something that’s been worn and treasured for generations.

Each bracelet is finished with handmade clasps, usually T-bar or toggle designs that become part of the aesthetic rather than something to hide. The metalwork shows its making – hammer marks, slight variations in the links, surfaces that have been worked rather than polished smooth.

Whether you’re after a heavy cuff that makes a statement or a more refined linked design, these pieces are built to last and meant to be worn every day.
