first venture into jewelry - brass and stainless bracelet

Finished this bracelet recently and was looking for some feedback. I do not usually work on projects on this small of a scale so thought I would give it a shot. It did come out looking a little more "Conan the Barbarian"-ish than I had intended. The frame is 1/8" stainless steel square stock, the rings were made from brass tubing that I cut and textured. The collars are just pieces of brass sheet I bent with needlenose pliers. There is a leather backer so the brass is not laying directly on the skin.

It does have a Conan look

It does have a Conan look which is not a bad thing. It makes a difference whether it is intended for a man or woman. If you work in a series, you will develop control over the idea and more ideas with fill your mind.

definitely male

I was definitely thinking this was a masculine looking piece but I may scale it down and revamp the design for a woman. I may try something similar out of silver if I am feeling saucy one day.
