"I created this piece after being inspired by the knights' armor in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. I sawed it from a sheet of brass after developing the pattern on paper. I annealed the brass and hammered it on a mandrel to create arm dimension. There is some play in the metal so the fit can be customized."

"I created this piece from a sheet of brass that I sawed into a hybrid W/U shape. The organic form came from cutting out other nested shapes. I annealed the brass and hammered it on a curve to create dimension and texture. After drilling two holes in the piece, I wired hematite beads to connect the brass to the vintage chain. I attached a clasp that fits inside all the larger links, so the length can be customized."

What is warehouse dead stock? This is material that is no longer useful to a manufacturer, but it is an up-cycler's best friend! ADJ loves to reduce waste and is creatively inspired by found materials.

"I originally created this piece from a sheet of brass. The organic form came from sawing out other nested shapes. I annealed the brass and hammered it on a curve to create dimension and texture. After drilling two holes in the piece, I connected the brass piece to the chain. I finished it with a clasp that fits inside all the links so the length can be customized to your neckline. All was then heavily plated in 14k Gold."
