Description

50 hand punched metal disks from VINTAGE salvaged materials.

I can't resist a good chunk of metal. I especially like sheets of stuff I can cut and piece together.
Since I have way too much 'sheet', I am sharing. So for the outsider artist, the recycling addict or found object lover I offer these to you.

I hand punched all these discs and the holes, then filed and ground off any rough edges. From old tin toy parts, tags, metal tins, a kitchen strainer, window screen and various display plates. Every piece was headed for the landfill. Every piece is vintage from something old, worn out or broken. Some have chippy paint, a bit of rust or a waffled surface. Some are shiny new looking. Charm size.

Various sizes from 3/8 - 1" (9-21 mm) and various colors.
The photos are examples of just some of what I have ready. You will get an assortment of fifty pieces that will probably include:

silver colored (aluminum and steel)
gold colored steel, aluminum and/or brass
copper or copper colored steel
5 with writing
paper thin, white from aluminim blinds.
holey stainless or aluminum, screen
colors include black, teal, blue, red, green, red, purple, and other misc patterns and pictures.

Most have 1/8" holes for hanging, located near an edge. Little ones sometime land in the middle 'cause they are hard for me to see. If the piece already had a hole or rivet, I let it stay as is. Some are from tin toys and may have slots and tabs.

Obviously these are great dangles for jewelry or cool scrapbooking embellishments. If you have a color preferance, I can try to accommodate but no gaurantees.

Other specialty vintage and non-vintage scrap metal discs can be found elsewhere in my shop! I can also make these without holes. Got something else special in mind? Convo me. Let's save the earth one disc at a time.

100% pure scrap

(for my records: # 32)
