This bangle is polished first. Then hammered. Then polished again. The result is a surface where the hammer marks are present but encased in shine, felt more than seen when you run your finger across it. The texture is there. The craft is there. But the finish is elevated, considered, the kind of surface that reads as luxurious rather than artisanal.
The substantial half-round profile sits confidently on the wrist. The open ends allow the bangle to be adjusted to fit and worn every day without fuss. Put it on. Bend it to fit. Wear it constantly.
As the bangle moves the high-polish surface catches and shifts light in ways that a plain polished bangle never could, the encased hammer marks creating constantly changing light patterns across the curve. Beautiful in stillness. Extraordinary in motion.
Sterling silver, hammered with high polish, half-round profile. Approximately 65mm interior diameter, adjustable. Handmade in New Zealand by Sue Dunmore, Porini Design Studio.
