1/2 Ounce Silver Ingot and Paracord Bracelet


Here is one of my finished .999 fine silver ingots I milled with oak leaves.  I used the silver piece and black 550 paracord to make this bracelet.  It was quite a process to figure out the levels of milling and getting the impressions on the silver.  I really like the look of the metal after adding the patina and then gently removing some of it.

About Me

My photo
I enjoy silversmithing, making jewelry, beads and working with paracord. I sculpt in polymer clay and desert themes are my favorite. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate the beauty of nature into my work. My work has been published in a large book called "1000 Beads," Lark Jewelry and Beading, 2014. I have sold beads through the Glendale Bead Museum Shop, a gallery in Tucson and www.wearartbyjulie.etsy.com. I'm an artist currently showing my jewelry at the Shemer Art Center in Phoenix, AZ.
