Natural inspirations  

Soon summer will fade into fall and nature’s pallete 
and textures act accordingly. From tiny woodland flowers to 
bold leafy themes, inspirations abound. As the seasons progress, 
many EtsyMetal artists will be observing nature’s work 
to take their cues from the greatest show on earth.

Chocolates and Champagne   

Sweet treats take on a new meaning as interpreted here by 
EtsyMetal artists.  Champagne and chocolate (diamonds... that is!) 
never seemed so tempting as they do here in these beautifully 
hand made settings.  Don't mind if I do.

Graphic elements  

Be it a texture, geometric pattern, or a love note, 
bands are a reflection of your once in a lifetime partership. 
Nothing reflects your personal style or sentiment like a 
uniquely crafted artisan wedding or comittment band.

“Making wedding bands for couples is very satisfying. 
I work hard to make them as perfect for them as I can, 
knowing they will be wearing them everyday as a 
symbol of their love for one another. It gives my work 
purpose and meaning, and I love that!”

from Kathleen’s feedback:

Our rings are beautiful. We will cherish them. 
Great, friendly customer service and a fast turnaround. 
The craftsmanship is marvelous. These rings are better than 
anything we tried on in the jewelry stores.

Our rings our BEAUTIFUL...
we can't wait to use them in our 
wedding ceremony and for years to come!

to work with. The ring is beautiful and arrived

EtsyMetal Creates a Wedding Line!

graphic design by Andrea Schettino


Today's bride and groom are looking for wedding rings that are unusual, sentimental and handmade.  There are many reasons to buy handmade.  When you buy handmade rings you can get a unique piece that cannot be bought in any commercial chain.  Buying directly from an individual artist, creates a relationship that makes the rings more special.  Many of the jewelers that I work with are also involved directly or indirectly with recycling their silver and purchasing raw materials from "green" suppliers.  Last but not least, buying handmade supports local economies.

Unfortunately there are not that many studio metalsmiths who have wedding lines.  Recently a fellow member, Chuck Domitrovich pointed this out.  So, I decided to accept my role/nickname as the "Sara Broadcast Network" (SBN) and promote our wedding lines.  In March we will unveil our Etsy Metal Wedding Line to include engagement rings and wedding bands.  We have all agreed to do our little bit to promote.  I want to thank Andrea Schettino from ArtigianoJewelBox for our gorgeous logo and banner!  I think it really captures a clean modern look with the romance of weddings.  Thanks for your hard work!  I can't wait to see all the new rings.  

Here's a list of our participating members--click on their names to get a link to their shops.
