THE STORY
The circle never quite closes. Two ends reach toward each other and stop just short, leaving room instead of finishing the shape. You don't have to be finished either. Not who you were, not who you are now, not who you're about to become.
More:
This shape has a real name. For thousands of years, cultures with no contact with each other called it a torc, a rigid band left open instead of closed into a full circle. Celtic Europe, Scythian goldwork, the Persian court, Thracian and Illyrian tribes. Different peoples, different centuries, same choice: leave the circle open on purpose..
THE PIECE
A rigid, hand-forged torc with tapered, hammered ends that stop just short of meeting.
Care
Bronze jewelry develops a natural, warm patina over time, which can be maintained or polished away. To preserve its shine, keep it dry, avoid chemicals (lotions/perfumes), and store in an airtight bag or anti-tarnish pouch. Clean gently with mild soap and water, or restore shine using a polishing cloth or baking soda paste
