This lovely contemporary bracelet features a hand-forged sterling silver oak leaf, set in the centre of a silver trace chain. The silver leaf has been embossed with an oak and acorn pattern and the whole design enhanced with an antique patina and a brushed satin finish.
The leaf has been individually sawn by hand from recycled sterling silver sheet metal and textured with an oak leaf pattern before being gently formed into a more 3-dimensional shape. The oak leaf itself measures 35mm by 20mm and the individual silver links in the chain are 4mm long.
The bracelet measures a total length of 20cm from end to end, and fastens with a classic lobster trigger clasp; this clasp can be attached to any of the rings in the chain, making the bracelet totally adjustable up to the maximum length.
The whole piece has been enhanced with an antique patina and given a brushed satin finish that really brings out the beautiful detail in the design, creating a wonderfully different and unusual bracelet which is perfect for all lovers of nature!
Please be aware that these bracelets are handmade and will therefore not be exactly identical to each other - they are always carefully made to the same size and design but each one will be very slightly unique from any other, with an individually placed pattern.
The patina effect will also darken naturally over time as the metal oxidises further with exposure to the air. Storing the jewellery in an airtight container or bag when not in use will slow this process down.
There are also matching earrings and a necklace in this style, available to view within the 'Oak Leaf' collection on the shop home page, where you can also find a similar range made using copper..
Due to size and shape, this bracelet will be carefully gift wrapped and presented in a ribbon-tied cardboard gift box. All items are sent in mailing boxes, mailing bags or padded envelopes as appropriate.
Shipping within the UK is already included via Royal Mail's ‘Tracked 24’ service (delivery estimate within 2-3 working days), with an optional upgrade to an express 'Special Delivery' service available at checkout for an additional charge (delivery estimate 1-2 working days).
I always aim to despatch all orders on the same or next working day that they are received, so any upgrade in postage chosen by a customer will be for the purposes of achieving higher priority within the Royal Mail system itself, rather than a faster processing time from me as a seller.
Please be aware that I am unable to guarantee specific delivery times of orders once posted but an estimate will be provided on checkout. This is a guide only.
If you wish to include a short handwritten message on a tag then I am more than happy to provide this service free of charge. Please enter any required text in the optional box to the left of the images.
In addition, if you wish the item to be sent direct to the recipient, then please make sure the mailing address is correct during the checkout process.
Aftercare advice on how to best care for your handmade jewellery will be provided in a leaflet with every order, but can also be found at the link HERE.
More information on payment and shipping, along with a copy of our full terms and conditions and privacy policy can be found at the links in the main menu and at the footer of each page.
And finally, if there is anything else at all that you would like to know about a particular item then please don’t hesitate to send a message and I’ll do my best to help!
