Description: |
Torque bangles are believed to have
been worn around the 8th century BC. The word “torque”
basically means twisted or turn. These bangles were found in
bronze, silver, and gold. This style of jewelry has stood
the test of time as it is still one of the most popular
designs today.
Coming To
The End Parure is no
exception. The base is a brass cuff blank sized to the
wearer. The blank is covered in peyote stitch and edged with
crystal pearls. An extension is built off of the cuff blank
to hold two large oval CZs. These CZs are bezeled and
attached to an extension in an ingenious way. Simple
embellishments add just the right touch using Austrian
crystals for sparkle. As if the bangle wasn’t enough, I had
to add earrings, of course!
The sample is about 6
inches. The cuff blanks are up to 7 inches, not counting the
opening, to get to desired length.
