Killer bracelet alert

We've had the a-ha moment!  After weeks of toodling around with this design, it's all come together.  This bracelet is made with heavy vintage steel chain and clasped together with a bronze coin and leather.  Our new favourite...

Here is another nice adaptation of the original bronze button bracelet... this time in very nice braided leather for a more polished look...

Enfin!  A new line has emerged this Spring and Summer... Joanna Baxter Design is taking a long nap while lover fighter prospers. Gone is the hum drum of modular design.  We're talking leather, lots of it, with the pleasure of excellent hardware in solid brass bits- and vintage steel and copper chain, recovered from Canada's oldest (now defunct) steel foundry where literally all things jewelry and decoration were die-cast and distributed for the first part of last century.  It's very cool and comes in loads of designs.... which is just the thing to inspire all sorts of rock and roll.
