Wavy Bark Bangle – Argentium Silver – XXLarge – Antique Finish
This Argentium Silver Wavy Bark Bangle has a bold, organic texture inspired by the look of tree bark. The gentle wave along the edge softens the form and adds movement. Because the bangle is made with Argentium silver, the surface stays bright even with daily wear. The antique finish sits deep in the recessed areas and highlights the raised details. As a result, the bark texture becomes clear and balanced.
Each Argentium Silver Wavy Bark Bangle is built from solid Argentium sheet. I fuse the surface pieces, shape the bangle into a true circle, and refine the wave by hand. Then I file, smooth, and work-harden the metal so it stays strong. After that, I polish the highlights and add a permanent antique patina. This finish deepens the texture and brings out the natural lines of the design. Because each bangle is handmade, the surface pattern has its own character.

Design & Feel
The Wavy Bark design blends curves with rugged texture. The soft wave catches the light, while the darker bark lines add depth. Because of this contrast, the bangle feels natural and expressive. It works as a single bold piece or stacked with other bark bangles for a layered look.
Argentium Heat & Finish
Because this bangle is made with Argentium silver, I heat-treat the piece to activate the germanium oxide layer. This treatment raises hardness and increases tarnish resistance. After the heat work, I add the antique finish and polish the high points for clarity and shine.
About the Metal
Argentium 940 silver includes a trace of germanium, which gives it a brighter colour and more strength than sterling. It also slows tarnish and is always nickel-free and hypoallergenic. Therefore, it works well for everyday jewellery.
