Fold Formed Copper Bracelet
Artist

Jewelry - Copper
Description
This rugged bracelet started as a sheet of copper, then it was heated and folded (like a sheet of paper!) The process, called “fold forming” was repeated several times to get the result you see here. An organic, imperfect hand made ONE OF A KIND work of art!
The bracelet was given a patina to emphasize the textures and folds – which appear on the inside as well as out.
It is coated in Renaissance Wax to help retard tarnish and also keep your skin from turning green (some people turn green simply by touching copper.) In order to maintain your bracelet, remove it when swimming or showering, and when you return home from your day. Recoating of wax can be accomplished as needed – you can use Renaissance, Johnsons or even Turtle Wax. Just like a car “wax on, wax off”.
This bracelet measures 7 ½” around with a 1” gap. Pulling or squeezing the ends to open or close can adjust it. It is 1” wide.
