The Backstory
John S. Brana has been handcrafting jewelry in San Francisco for over 20 years. That’s not a trendy hobby—that’s a craft. Every pair of earrings is shaped, textured, and finished by hand. So no two pairs are exactly alike. Which honestly, makes them feel even more special.
He uses recycled copper and other ethically sourced materials. And he coats the copper in a non-toxic polymer to stop tarnishing, so you don’t have to worry about it turning dark or green.
It’s jewelry with soul—made the right way.
Why Copper? Why Chili Peppers?
Copper is kind of like the denim of metals. It works with everything and only gets better with age. And it’s said to have all sorts of benefits—from mood boosting to joint support. (Not making any promises—but hey, it can’t hurt.)
