I have completed two more cuffs. Copper, acid-etched, antiqued patina. The cuff on the right is a repeat of a recent silver piece. The cuff on the left was more a prototype to try something a bit different. I first stamped the parallel lines then using a stamp I very finely textured the bars. The I used a dapping ball to dimple the square-ish spaces. Finally domed and shaped the cuff. Brad

Brad, you had me at copper cuff since that is my favorite metal; both are gorgeous and I'd happily wear either one of them. It's nearly impossible for me to choose a favorite, but the one on the left gets my vote by the tiniest of margins. I really like the dimpling combines with the bars on that one. I could easily see the other one be something that would appeal to men because of the geometric design. Beautiful work! Dawn

In my cuffs I often include a separate panel/element on the ends. Here is the backside of the cuff on the right. Brad

So nice! I like them both, but agree with Dawn that the one on the right would be perfect for men, too.

These cuffs are beautiful. I wouldn't know which of them to wear... perhaps the left one would suit me best.
