Bark Bangle – Argentium Silver – Small (6.0 cm) Antique
🌿 LIFE *I Create* NATURE IN SYNC – Energetic – Resilient – Peaceful – Evolving
I handcraft the Argentium Bark Bangle Small Antique in my BC studio. First, I flatten and texture 16–20 ga silver wire. Next, I fuse the layers to build the raised bark relief. Then I form the circle true, work-harden the metal for strength, and apply a deep antique patina so the valleys darken and the ridges stand out. Because I finish each step by hand, every bangle is one of a kind.
Design & feel
The bark texture shows crisp ridges and soft valleys, so light moves across the surface while the shape stays smooth on your wrist. Also, the true circle stacks neatly with other pieces, letting you add texture without bulk.

Materials & care
Argentium Silver (940) includes a touch of germanium, so it stays bright, hard, and tarnish-resistant. It is always nickel-free and hypoallergenic for everyday comfort. To preserve the antique finish, rinse with mild soap and water, pat dry with a soft cloth, and avoid harsh dips or ultrasonic cleaners.
