Textured Bubbles Bangle by Rebecca Oldfield

£295.00

A heavy weight comfort fit sterling silver  bangle. This bangle has been decorated using the metalworking technique of "chasing". The technique (chasing) is an ancient one - it is where a combination of steel punches, a hammer and a bowl of pine pitch are used to emboss the artists design onto the metal surface. The pitch enables the metal to move under the steel punches therefor no metal is removed to make these impressions unlike engraving. Rebecca's inspirations for these works were found within close examination of organic matter through microscopes. Bangle diameter: 70mm Bangle height: 6mm
