Fold-Form Belt In Copper, Brass, And Sterling Silver, And Bronze
Fold-forming refers to a series of metalsmithing techniques pioneered by Charles Lewton-Brain. I used cross-folds to form the copper front of this buckle, adding accents in sterling silver and a heavy brass backing. The buckle is 3" x 2.25". This listing includes a 32 - 46 inch long x 1 1/2 inch wide, brown or black leather belt.

Dec 17, 2013Working with Alex was amazing. He offered interesting alternatives to my original idea, and executed on them flawlessly. He was communicative and timely. The final product is astoundingly beautiful, and was precisely what we had agreed on. And on top of all that, very reasonable pricing. I hope to work with him again some time, and would highly recommend him!

Apr 30, 2017I had some initial concerns with the penultimate version of the bracelet/cuff I requested, which the designer expertly accommodated prior to shipping the final version. The cuff is beautiful!

Jun 22, 2014Artisans like Alex are why the CustomMade site is so great. He is an absolute master at his craft, and he truly made my vision come alive, in a form better than I had ever imagined. He completely hand-fabricates his artworks - his creations are genuinely works of art - and involves his patrons in every step of the process as well as caters to their every need. I will definitely come back to Alex whenever I am I need of a jeweler. Thank you Alex!
