Bangle & Bracelet Mandrel — 14 Inch Teardrop-Profile Wood, Hammer Forming & Shaping
A dedicated form for hammering bangles to a teardrop cross-section — the asymmetric profile a round or oval mandrel cannot hold. Work the metal over it and the shape stays consistent along the full length, so each pass of the hammer reinforces the section rather than fighting it. Suited to silver, copper and other non-ferrous metals for contemporary bangle work.
Made in solid wood, it will not mark or bruise a precious-metal surface the way a steel form can, and its mass sits stable and reliable under hammer blows. The gentle taper lets you form a range of bangle diameters on the one tool, and at 14 inches there is ample length for adult sizes.
- Maintains a consistent teardrop cross-section along its full working length.
- Smooth wooden construction prevents marking or damaging precious metal surfaces.
- Measures 14 inches, providing ample length for forming adult-sized bangles.
- Gently tapered design accommodates the creation of various bangle diameters.
- Solid form provides a stable and reliable surface for hammer-forming work.
Who it's for
