Jewellery Care Guide

Sterling Silver: Gently polish with a soft jewellery cloth to maintain shine. Silver Care Guide →

Solid Gold (9ct, 14ct, 18ct): Solid gold will not tarnish or peel, but it can gather oils and dust. Soak in warm water with a drop of mild dish soap, then gently scrub with a soft toothbrush to restore its brilliance.

18ct Gold Plate: Avoid water, perfumes, and lotions to preserve the gold layer. Gold Plate Care Guide →

Bronze: Over time, bronze develops a unique vintage patina. Polish to restore brightness or leave to age naturally. Bronze Care Guide →

Modernist 🖤 Clean lines, bold shapes — jewellery with a mid-century edge

A sculptural, modern essential cast in solid, enduring bronze. This closed bangle is created using the lost wax casting process, capturing every detail of the original hand-formed wax design. It is designed to be lived in—boasting a unique, organic texture that catches the light from every angle. With a substantial weight and a soft, matte finish, it strikes the perfect balance between architectural clean lines and the warmth of artisanal craftsmanship. Whether worn solo as a statement piece or stacked with your everyday favourites, this bangle is a tactile, timeless addition to your collection that will develop a character-filled patina unique to your story.

My Philosophy

"I am not a fleeting trend. I was born from an artist's hand, cast in solid earth, and built to survive the wear and tear of your actual life. I will change colour, I will catch the light, and I will be as unique as the story you write every day you wear me."

More than an accessory, a companion. I believe jewellery should be lived in. This bangle is designed to be a tactile, grounding presence on your wrist—a solid, weighty reminder of your own story. As the bronze develops its unique, character-filled patina through your daily life, it evolves from a new piece of art into a personal artifact. It's not just made for your wardrobe; it's made for your journey.

Quick Questions

How do I choose my size? Because this is a solid, closed bangle, choosing the correct size is essential. We recommend checking your fit against our Bangle Sizing Guide (PDF). If your size falls outside of our standard 60mm, 65mm, or 68mm offerings, please get in touch for a custom order.

How will the bronze age? Our bronze is left with a soft, natural finish. It will naturally darken and develop a beautiful, warm patina over time with wear. You can easily brighten it back up with a polishing cloth if you prefer a golden shine.

How much does the bangle weigh? These pieces are intentionally weighty to provide a substantial feel. The 65mm bangle weighs approximately 70g, and the 68mm bangle weighs approximately 72.8g.

Style & Inspiration

Drawing from the clean, geometric rigor of the Modernist movement, this bangle is a study in purposeful simplicity. It is designed to be a tactile companion—a piece that starts as a sculpture on your wrist and gradually gains a life of its own through the unique patina of daily wear. Whether you are building a collection of curated stacks or searching for a single, grounding piece, this bangle is an intentional nod to art that is meant to be handled, worn, and lived in.
