Tarnish
Hand-hammered silver
& oxidized steel
Knuckle Cluster
Started as a single band cut from a 999 fine silver strip, hammered cold over a tapered mandrel until the surface held every mark of the maul. Then the acid bath — liver of sulfur, thirty seconds — turning it the color of a bruise. Filed back by hand along the high edges until the chrome showed through. No two are the same width. That's not a flaw.

The anvil doesn't care what you're making. It just holds still while you figure it out. Every piece starts the same way — metal that doesn't know what it is yet, and a hammer that's been used for fifteen years.
Dead Weight
Every link is formed individually — round stock bent over a jig, soldered closed, then tumbled with steel shot for two hours. After that, the patina is applied in stages: first black, then selectively buffed to let the chrome breathe through the joints. The clasp is a modified toggle, heavy enough you feel it move when you walk.

Liver of sulfur in warm water. Thirty seconds turns silver the color of a storm drain. Sixty seconds and it's almost black. The trick is knowing when to pull it out — and when to leave it in.
Cabinet Cuff
Cut from 18-gauge steel sheet, annealed twice to keep it workable. Formed over a wooden stake — not a mandrel, a stake — so the curve is never perfect. The edges are left raw, just enough to clear a burr pass. Oxidized with a torch until the surface runs through blue, purple, and finally settles to black. It will scratch. It should.
