Renoir Japanese Medallion Complex Form Bracelet
Renoir Luncheon Part Complex Form Art Jewelry Bracelet made from recycled tin cans is available for purchase or exhibition from this photo. This is the only bracelet from this group of jewelry that went to Schmuck 2001. The black, jade green, and metallic flower is from a vintage tin that is about 100 years old. There is a metallic flower on the left and a jade green butterfly on the right; a metaphor about the transformation of materials from recycled tin cans destined for the landfill or the recycle bin, into this fabulous bracelet.
This bracelet is available for purchase or exhibition.
Renoir Japanese Medallion, Complex Form Bracelet has a black, jade green, with a metallic flower and green abstract butterfly from vintage tray. This is not perfect, but if you consider the age of this material, it is spectacular. The tray was about 100 years old. The outside edge is a dull red with green leaves abstract pattern. Inside edge is red and green pattern like an oriental carpet. The outside edge has brass escutcheon pins which I can polish up.
