Item details

This listing is for a single, heavy weight sterling silver bangle, that I've formed into a shape curved in two planes (like a pringle, or a seashell) known as anticlastic, made specifically to your requirements - you can choose from the patination options listed or take pot luck and have whichever colour I manage to achieve and love the most myself ;-)
I'll need you to tell me the size you want, ideally in millimetres in the personalisation.
I'm making a bundle of these to post off to the Assay Office, with an expectation of having them back to post off to you (unless you are local and want to come and collect it) in October/November

I use recycled sterling sheet to form these bangles, rolling it to a thickness of approximately 0.8mm thick, which means each is over the weight that requires formal hallmarking at the London Assay Office (ie more than 7.78g)

Each is slightly different because of how I make them, and in this instance I've also applied liver of sulphur to the inner curve of the outer edge to give them an extra beauty.

The bangles photographed are examples of golden, bronze and unpatinated. As you can see from the bunches I'm holding, I can achieve a variety of colours, including a classic deep and dark midnight.

Made to order, please message me for current expected timescales.

I love a bangle. I really do. I have a whole range I wear myself, and I particularly like them to stack up so that I jingle gently everywhere I go :-)

It takes me a considerable amount of time to mercilessly beat these into shape - I start with a sheet of silver that I saw into strips, rolling it to the required thickness, file, sand and then form into a bangle, soldering it closed. At this point, it's just a flat, uninteresting strip of silver.

I then start to create the shape, hammering hard against a special stake, shaped like an antler.

I do this about 6 times, annealing between each round of bashering (technical term ;-) ) each time stretching the bangle to achieve the shape I want

The final photos show a close up of the 2023 Coronation hallmark

I've made some (as always, rather dull!) videos of the process of making these, speeded up as much as my software will allow, and nicely silent: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_fEudIT2h_5ntaUvuK8zRxuZ1sXvf0AZ
