Stamped Brass and Silver Sun Cuff

• Hand-stamped brass and silver
• Mixed-metal design
• Oxidized finish for contrast
• Open adjustable cuff
• Dot and line stamping detail

Because each cuff is stamped and shaped by hand, small variations in texture, oxidation and finish are part of the piece.

The design translates a sunrise into two facing brass fans, each stamped with radiating lines at the arc and rows of small circles inside. Read as a pair, they hold the composition symmetrical across the wrist.

Brass and oxidized silver do the color work. The warm brass sits raised against a band darkened in a chemical bath and then buffed so the finish stays only in the recessed dots — bright against shadow, warm against cool.

Each cuff is cut from flat sheets of brass and sterling silver before the surface work begins. The stamped marks are struck by hand, one at a time; the silver is oxidized, buffed back, and the brass forms riveted on before the band is shaped to its final curve.

• Technique: Hand-stamped metalwork

Keep away from moisture, lotion and perfume. Polish occasionally with a soft jewelry cloth to preserve the contrast between the oxidized silver and the brass.
