Since as long as I can remember, I have always been completely intrigued by the ocean, all of the plants and animals within it, and how they all work together in incredible symbiotic relationships.  The beautiful coast of California is filled with unique fauna making this particular intertidal zone incredibly special and a vital part of the health of our overall environment.  
 
I created this statement cuff bracelet as a reminder of how special our coast is and the need to take care of it to keep it healthy and thriving.
 
The most special part of this cuff bracelet is the stone... a 10 million year old agatized fossil whalebone.  I found this gorgeous fossil whalebone on the beach in Santa Barbara County, California.  I cut it, hand polished it with a high dome finish, and took inspiration from the beautiful California coast to hand silversmith it into this one-of-a-kind sterling silver statement ring.  I hand carved each barnacle and tunicate (sea squirt) out of silver to make this incredibly unique. No part of this piece is cast; it is completely handmade (by me) and 100% one-of-a-kind.


This sterling silver statement cuff bracelet measures 43mm x 26mm and is completely adjustable and one-size-fits-all
