I love to work with reclaimed metals to create jewelry inspired by my work as a biologist.
Silver, gold, bronze, brass or copper can be all be recycled and turned into interesting jewelry pieces. All you need is your imagination… and knowing some jewelry-making techniques! Here is a vintage silver spoon that I cut, filed, pressed, forged, and oxidized into an open bracelet. As a final touch, I added silver balls in the center. The Italian name of this bracelet is “nido di rondine” (robin’s nest).
