I fabricate my octopus belt buckle from sterling silver, copper, and brass. I pierce (cut with a jeweler's saw) the knotwork octopus from silver sheet, and engrave the design details. The buckle has a 3" diameter and fits any standard 1 1/2" belt.

For Silver pendant with black etchingWorking 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!

For SpringsteenAlex helped me create a unique and special pendant. I had a basic idea in mind and Alex helped me pull it together with helpful suggestions and creative recommendations. Alex is patient, and prompt to answer questions - I asked a lot of them. I recommend him highly, and if the need ever arises, will be a repeat customer.
LOVE the pendant, Alex. Thank you.
