Bangle Forming Mandrel — 14 Inch Natural Wood, Domed Triangle Profile for Bracelets

A triangular bangle reads crisp on the wrist but has to feel kind against it. This 14-inch hardwood mandrel is turned for exactly that compromise: three faces in a domed profile with softened corners, so pieces formed on it keep their geometric line without a hard edge touching skin. The continuous taper covers a full run of bangle sizes as you work down the form.

Because it is light-coloured hardwood rather than steel, it shapes silver and copper without marring — the form yields fractionally before your metal does. The thinking in our guide to choosing a ring mandrel applies just as well here: let the tool set the geometry, and keep your hammer work light and even.
