Sarah Cavender Metalworks

After graduating from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia, with a major in sculpture in 1984, Sarah Cavender started with brass screening, developing a technique of treating and folding mesh to create beautiful flower and bug sculptures out of the unique material. The small start has expanded into a full time line of jewellery, metal mesh belts and handbags.

All of Sarah's designs are created in her small shop by local craftspeople under her direct supervision. Each piece is plated or oxidised and then finished by a process of hand painting with bronze powders in a base of lacquer, and then sealed. The delightful colours are individually mixed and custom tinted.
