Hands on preview - Self Edge Bow Bracelet

SE Bow Bracelet

  • 925 Sterling Silver
  • Hand Shaped and Oxidized Inners
  • Produced by Francis J (World renowned Native American silversmith)
  • Fully Adjustable (Fits every wrist size)

The Bow bracelet is made just as you would suspect; Francis solders sheets of silver together, all flat and then bends it to form the bracelet, easily one of our favorite pieces.

These are made by a very famous jeweler named Francis Jones, she is almost 80 years old and she invented this style of work in America many years ago. Her past works are heavily prized by the Japanese and other vintage American jewelry collectors.

The top inner sections are oxidized sterling silver and with time will wear and will form a very unique patina that will show a bright silver under the black oxidation.
