This one of a kind bracelet is designed and hand crafted by me. Each sterling silver link is individually formed to accommodate one White Buffalo stone. After forming each link, the hinges are attached to each other, the metal is oxidized (blackened), and the stones are set.
White Buffalo Dolomite is a distinctive black and white stone. The mineral is primarily composed of dolomite, a calcium magnesium carbonate, characterized by a creamy white base with contrasting black or brown veins. The intricate patterns make each stone unique. This mineral is often mistakenly called White Buffalo Turquoise but it lacks the mineral/copper content that gives turquoise it’s blue green hues.
The mineral is mined in a single location, Tonopah, Nevada and managed by a small group of miners, making it a rare and sought after stone.
White Buffalo is also appreciated for it’s metaphysical properties, believed to bring calmness, clarity, and balance to the wearer.

An anticlastic, one of a kind, hand crafted, cuff bracelet.
It’s a stunning piece of jewelry combining artistry and craftsmanship. The term "anticlastic" refers to the opposing curvatures in the design: while the bracelet curves around the wrist to form a cuff, the metal simultaneously arches outward and upward along its width, creating a graceful, wave-like contour.
Hand-forged from sterling silver, the concave curvature of the bracelet is blackened and shows subtle hammer marks giving a unique, textured finish. The polished surface reflects light enhancing the elegance of the curves. This beautiful cuff is a testament to an artist’s “eye”.
Metal: Sterling Silver
Finish: Brushed with light oxidation on concave portion
Size: 5 1/2” approximately, slightly adjustable
