entangled still

Entangled jewelry is heavily into metal. Found metal. Below are new, one-of-a-kind assemblages that recycle found metal pieces: washers, hex nuts, widgets . . . indeed whatever works. Scuffed, abraded, and faceted by the elements and pavement, the surface patina on these finds is beautiful.  No lack of material. My husband pockets great stuff on every walk, and I, on most runs. 

The challenge of working with found metal is mechanics. How do I attach piece A to piece B? The solutions are as unique as the materials. And this inventiveness makes the process terribly addictive. Entangled still!

Of course I'm still working with buttons of all descriptions.
