Bracelets

Each of these beautifully handcrafted bracelets are hand raised using an ancient technique called anticlastic raising.  Each bracelet is hand-formed from a flat sheet of metal and has been hammered approximately 1500 times around an antler-like form to create these organic natural shapes.

The artist then applies a variety of colors and finishes. These patinas are then secured by a clear powder coating to maintain the color and to eliminate the skin changing colors when the piece is worn.

A different finish is then applied to secure the color and insure the skin isn't effected by the metal.

Sculptures

The sculptures that Pattie Parkhurst creates are always one-of-a-kind hand raised using the ancient technique called anticlastic raising.  Each form is hand formed from a flat sheets of metal. They are hammered over and over around an antler like form to create these organic natural shapes that resemble something inspired from a garden.  Each sculpture has thousands of blows with the hammer and takes months to complete.
