Corrugated Life Curved Cuff Links

Description

I make these cuff links by corrugating brass sheet, then fusing with sheets of sterling silver. The pair shown is oxidized, but this design can also be ordered sandblasted or shiny. The pair shown has french backs of my own design, but commercial spring loaded backs are available if you prefer. My signature stamp is on reverse.

The "corrugated life" series draws inspiration from worn cardboard and the metal working techniques are translated from the process used in creating corrugated cardboard. Philosophically, the series deals with trash, decomposition, transformation, and found beauty within the urban landscape, while corrugation allows even large pieces to be relatively lightweight and comfortable to wear.

About an inch and a 3/4 long, with a slight curve.

I make these to order -- please allow one week before shipping. The picture is an example of a pair that are already sold. They are easily customizable, please let me know if you would like anything (name, phrase, "corrugated life", etc.) stamped on the front. Also, you can indicate shiny, oxidized, sandblasted, or any other preferences on "message to seller" section of checkout.
