Dozens of open rings interlock into a tiered V, dense across the shoulders and tapering to a single ring at the point. The surface reads warm gold, with soft irregularities catching light unevenly across the bib.

  • Material: Hammered brass
  • Color: Warm gold
  • Length: 25 in with 2 in extender
  • Drop: 9 in
  • Closure: Lobster clasp
  • Origin: India

The bib has real presence but stays flexible — the rings shift and settle as you move, so what looks like a solid plane of metal actually drapes. Worn over a plain crew neck or an open collar, it becomes the whole outfit.
Details
  • Hand-hammered ring texture
  • Tiered open-ring construction
  • Lobster clasp
  • 2 in extender
  • Warm gold-tone finish

Each ring is individually hammered and linked by hand, so small variations in ring shape and finish are expected from piece to piece.

The Story

Bib necklaces built from linked rings are assembled from many small units into one larger surface, rather than cast from a single piece of metal. The V-shape here — rings graduating outward from a single ring at the base — is what gives a flat plane of metal drape and weight.

The construction is chainmail-like. Each ring is formed from wire, worked on an anvil to give it its faint faceted surface, then hand-linked to its neighbors. That is where the slight unevenness comes from, and why the piece flexes instead of sitting rigid.

Brass is the working metal — warm-toned, dense enough to hold shape, workable enough to hammer and link by hand. It is made in India, where hand-forged ring and link jewelry has a strong working tradition.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-forged and hammered brass ringwork

Brass darkens with moisture and time. Wipe with a soft dry cloth after wear and store away from humidity to keep the finish warm.

Questions

Can I adjust the length?

Yes. The 25 in chain includes a 2 in extender, so you can wear it at the base length or slightly looser depending on the neckline.

Will it tarnish?

Brass can darken with time and moisture exposure. Wipe it dry after wear and store it away from humidity to keep the warm gold tone.

Is it heavy to wear?

It is built from many small open rings rather than a solid sheet, so it has real presence but moves and drapes rather than sitting stiff.

Is it hypoallergenic?

It is uncoated brass, which works well for most people but is not marketed as hypoallergenic. Keep that in mind if you have a known metal sensitivity.

Why do the rings look slightly irregular?

Each ring is worked individually on an anvil, so faint hammer marks and small shape variations are part of the handwork rather than a flaw.
