BLUE JANGLE BANGLE

Description

BLUE JANGLE BANGLE, with its rich midnight blue would look great with jeans or dressier clothes for a night on the town! Mix and match with other bracelets for a delightful jingle-jangle of sound and color!

The bracelet pictured is the one you will receive, not a copy. BLUE JANGLE BANGLE is one-of-a-kind!

Enameled front & back in my studio, BLUE JANGLE BANGLE was made from highly durable heavy-duty, hand cut, and riveted 16 gauge copper. My enameled bracelets are strong enough to resist bending, chipping or cracking of the fine glass enameled coating.

BLUE JANGLE BANGLE measures 1/4 inch wide & 2 3/4" in diameter which is a perfect fit for most hands/wrists.

Originally inspired by a class entitled "Enamel on Copper Jewelry" taught by Richard Salley at the 2008 Art & Soul Retreat in Portland, Oregon, I have further pursued the fine art of enameling. In addition, I am extremely fortunate to be able to study under Averill Shepps, a world famous enamelist. Averill's work can be seen at http://www.enamelist.com/ and also at http://www.torpedofactory.org/galleries/enamelists.htm
I have also been working with George Waricher, an enamelist for over 30 years, from the Carlisle, PA, Arts Center.

My bracelets can also be purchased at the Village Artisans Gallery in historic Boiling Springs, PA. ~ http://www.villageartisansgallery.com/ and also at Off the Wall Elegance in Carlisle, PA.

As an artist, I have found enameling to be particularly empowering, allowing me much variety in color, shape, & texture. It is not unusual to have the raw metal material guide me to its end form. It is truly thrilling to experience the results of combining glass powders and copper or steel after firing in a 1500 degree kiln. No two pieces are exactly alike & each creation has a special gleaming personality of its own!
