Low tarnish sterling silver, Pure Titanium, Stainless Steel
Reversible
Hand drawn, CAD modified, laser cut, hand finished

Every detail was hand finished and the intricate details dazzle. Microscopic marine creatures were the inspiration for the layers of low tarnish sterling silver in this reversible cuff bracelet.

Three thin layers keep the bracelet lightweight and stainless steel fasteners strengthen the bracelet while also reminding us that humankind’s activities on land affect even the tiniest of sea creature.

The outer titanium layers tantalize the viewer with a peek at the complex inner layer of low tarnish sterling silver.

The outer layer is based on the Clathrocyclas latonae microscopic creature and the inner layer is based on the microscopic sea creature Polystomelia Imperatrix.

I modified the creatures as I redrew the microscopic creatures by hand; based on the drawings below. I digitized the new hand drawings, modified them again in CAD and sent the designs to a laser cutter where the layers were cut in 30 gauge low tarnish sterling silver and pure titanium.

Each curve and cutout is textured, burnished and finished by hand.
