I’ve always been a texture gal and get so excited when I observe beauty in nature. I think about ways of reproducing these textures, sometimes spending hours in my studio. My husband and mentor have helped me with the transformation process. I use lots of different tools to grind the metal for different textures and patterns and then I sometimes oxidize or patina each piece. Enjoy!

Taking care of your jewelry: This piece of bronze jewelry is satin finished with an etched texture that will patina and darken naturally. It you want to take off the patina you would have to use our jewelry cleaner, which brighten up the metal.
