The Silver finish is a polished Aluminum blank made from a flat 14G stock material. The stamping is a 3mm or 1/8″ number. I love the concept of GPS addresses. Where you live, where you married, met or so many personal meanings a certain spot on the planet can have. I use a heavy hammer to achieve the deep impressions, they will last longer and add a more organic look to the piece. Personal message on the back if you please. These are now available in my Etsy shop.
Stamping Bangle Bracelets
- Here’s a batch of copper Cuff bangles I’ve stamped. Actually I do the stamping before I bend the strips into the bracelet shape. These are circular though I suppose most cuff Bracelets are oval. The round shape is my favorite. I use the clever ImpressArt bracelet bender tool and finish the shape with bending pliars. These cuffs were cut 6″x 1/4″ from 16 gauge sheet copper and left with an uncoated finish.

Beautiful old silverware has found a place in my jewelry making corner. Here we have mid-century silver plate that is excellent for cutting into new shapes because the core is nickle, think “German silver”, it is seamless.
