Married Metals Cufflinks
These cufflinks are a shadowbox hollow form made of fine silver and copper. Brushed silver has a subtle sheen that picks up the warmth of the copper. Hand-hammereing allows for evidence of the process in making these.
Traditionally, shadowbox jewelry is made with stones like turquoise. Here, I’ve used hammered married metals as the the centerpiece to the shadowbox rather than stones.
Hand-fabricated (made by hand). Due to the nature of the process, no two pieces are alike.

Dusk and Dawn – Married Metals Dangling Earrings
These earrings sold so quickly I didn’t get the chance to photograph them with the earring wires!
This pair is completely handmade – the copper and silver were cut out with a jeweler’s saw and hand-hammered. The fluctuations in the metal catch light so that there are gentle glimmers of light with the movement of the earrings.
The silver reminds me of night, and the copper reminds me of the day – hence the title: Dusk and Dawn.
Similar earrings may be made to order.
