A chunky sterling silver hand textured bangle.

This chunky bangle has been handcrafted from 2mm thick and 6mm wide rectangular wire. After cutting and filing the silver wire I have textured the silver using a texturing hammer – this gives the silver a hammered effect texture. The silver is then shaped and soldered into the bangle and polished to a high finish.

This bangle is oval and measures approximately 6.5cm across the widest part. A chunky piece, it weighs 23g and has been hallmarked by The Sheffield Assay Office, carrying my unique maker’s mark.

Materials

I only work with quality materials.  This bangle has been handcrafted from recycled sterling silver wire.   

 

Hallmarking

UK regulations require any silver item over 7.78g to carry a hallmark.  This is your assurance of the quality and authenticity of the materials used.  I am registered with The Sheffield Assay Office, and where appropriate my pieces are hallmarked, carrying my unique maker’s mark.  Where my pieces are hallmarked, this will be noted in the individual item description.  You can view the Hallmarking Dealers Notice, or find out more information about hallmarking at Hallmarking and Analytical Services | Sheffield Assay Office

 

Taking Care of your Jewellery

I use sterling silver in my handcrafted jewellery.  Sterling silver will tarnish (lose its shine) naturally over time.  However, many modern-day products can accelerate this process.  Please take care when using products such as hairspray, perfume, hand and body lotions and cleaning products and it is recommended you remove jewellery before bathing, swimming, or using a hot tub.  It is advisable to store jewellery in a box when not being worn. 

 

Packaging. 

Your purchase will be presented in either a white eco-friendly jewellery box, or a white eco-friendly linen pouch.

 

Shipping

I currently only ship within the UK.  I aim to despatch orders the next working day, but in any event all orders will be despatched within 1-3 workings days of the order date.  Shipping within the UK is included, and this piece will be shipped via Royal Mail Next Day Special Delivery (by 1pm excluding weekends and bank holidays). 

 

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for taking the time to look at my jewellery.

Ruth.  Xx
