Productdetails

Vintage Creative Copper South Africa Brutalist Mixed Metal Statement Set Up for sale is an exceptional, artisan-crafted vintage mixed-metal jewelry set from the renowned Creative Copper studio in South Africa. This rare, 3-piece statement collection features a rigid torque-style collar necklace with a substantial abstract pendant, a wide matching cuff bracelet, and drop dangle earrings. Embodying the bold, mid-to-late 20th-century Brutalist and Modernist movements, this wearable art collection relies on organic textures, architectural lines, and torch-fired metalwork to create a striking aesthetic impact. Design Details & Features: Torque Necklace: Consists of a sleek, contoured solid neck ring with a secure front hook-and-loop closure holding a large, multi-layered circular abstract pendant. Cuff Bracelet: A wide, open-backed copper band featuring torch-fired coloration, dramatically accented by a bright, central brass wire spiral/vortex and flanking metallic panels. Dangle Earrings: Perfectly matched organically shaped drop earrings framed with bright brass wire, suspended from comfortable wire hooks. Artisanal Finish: High-contrast pairing of gleaming gold-tone brass overlays with deep, iridescent, flame-patinated copper surfaces. Details: This set has been meticulously cared for and displays negligible signs of wear. The original torch-fired patina is bright and highly iridescent, and all structural elements/wire overlays remain firm and secure. Note on Artisan Craftsmanship: As an authentic, hand-wrought studio piece, natural variations in texture, finish, and soldering are inherent to the original Brutalist design and are not considered flaws. While this is an authentic, cataloged Creative Copper design, these specific pieces do not carry a physical stamped maker's mark.
