Scarf Rings – New Product Release by John S. Brana Fine Handcrafted Jewelry

Sometimes I’m amazed at how events develop.  Late last month, I was having lunch with an old friend/co-worker from my corporate days at Charles Schwab.  He mentioned to me how his wife was going on about scarf rings for Christmas gifts.  She had just returned from Europe where they were all the rage…something I had really never thought about designing.  Within the next week, I had a joint gallery opening with abstract photographer and silk wear designer Klaus Lange at The ArtPeople Gallery here in San Francisco.  So I put two and two together, and knocked out some scarf rings to accompany Klaus’ silk scarves.  The artists reception was on Nov 6^th, and the scarf rings were a home run!  Not bad for a 10 day turnaround.

Below are pictures of my two current scarf ring designs in Copper and Sterling Silver, along with some of the exhibition photos.  Over the next few months, I’ll be working on more designs in Vermeil and Bronze, so stay tuned….
