The Amarna Bracelet II. The design is developing out of my own 10 year fascination with the Art & Architecture of ancient Egypt. The design process with this bracelet is a continued exploration of harmonic proportions using sacred geometry on a two dimensional plane as a starting point for design. When we look at the construction work in Egypt dating back into Antiquity, behind each temple & structure is a blueprint which is witnessed the world over. Ancient cultures harmonized their surroundings with the natural world using sacred geometry principles and this is becoming more evident today as our own technology advances.
The bracelet is crafted from sterling silver which is cast and rolled to a thickness of 2.8mm. The overall weight of the bracelet is 31grams approx. I decided on AAA Grade Red Garnet, Cubic Zirconia gems. Beautiful deep red coloured cubic zirconia gemstones which imitate well the natural colour of garnet but with the added incredible sparkle that cubic zirconia are known for.
The ends are crafted from sterling silver with my own Celtic inspired twisted knot combination and these are frosted using a steel bristle brush which creates a beautiful textured finish.
