Inspired by the patterned look of a classic Fair Isle sweater, this piece combines layered and textured sterling silver with hand-stitched silk embroidery for a unique mix of metalsmithing and textile design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sterling silver focal is fabricated by hand from layered sheet silver and features a raised border around the design. I pierced a pattern of openings throughout the silver and then hand-stitched through many of them with silk thread in a warm palette of coral, beige, and light grey. A few of the openings are intentionally left unstitched, giving the piece a relaxed, handmade quality and a slightly worn, well-loved feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe finished focal slides onto a rich camel-colored leather band with a rivet closure. Multiple adjustment holes allow the bracelet to fit a range of wrist sizes, from approximately 5\" to 7.25\". The leather is incredibly soft and comfortable to wear, and the focal can easily be removed and transferred to a different leather band if you want to change the color or replace the band over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow it’s made matters:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis bracelet was designed and fabricated by hand by Shannon Bundschuh of Carry a Torch. From the layered and pierced sterling silver to the hand-stitched silk embroidery, every part of the focal was thoughtfully made in my studio. The combination of silver, silk, and leather creates a piece that feels both modern and rooted in traditional Scandinavian textile design.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Handmade sterling silver focal\u003cbr\u003e• Fair Isle-inspired, Scandinavian-style design\u003cbr\u003e• Layered sterling silver sheet with raised border\u003cbr\u003e• Hand-pierced openings with silk embroidery\u003cbr\u003e• Coral, beige, and light grey silk thread\u003cbr\u003e• Rich camel-colored leather band\u003cbr\u003e• Adjustable rivet closure\u003cbr\u003e• Fits approximately 5\"–7.25\" wrists\u003cbr\u003e• Focal size: 2 1\/8\" wide x 1\" high\u003cbr\u003e• Leather band: 5\/8\" wide\u003cbr\u003e• Focal slides on and off the leather band for easy replacement or customization\u003cbr\u003e• Leather may stretch slightly over time\u003cbr\u003e• One-of-a-kind handmade jewelry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo view some of the 'making of' video, click here: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DX2onLnBQHO\/\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBecause this bracelet incorporates natural leather and silk thread, a little extra care is needed.
