Creaseform Earrings by David M Bowman Studio

Creaseformed earrings in flame-treated and patinaed copper. Creaseformed earrings are a new set of styles involving new forging techniques, sometimes grouped under the term 'foldforming', allowing cloth- or leather-like crumpled looks.

Handmade by David and Reed Bowman in Berkley, California.

David M Bowman Studio consists of two people: David Mills Bowman and his son, Reed Christopher Bowman. David began working in metal in 1971, near the time Reed was born; he first made silver jewelry, later moved on to brass belt buckles, then to larger pieces in patinaed brass. Over the years David has worked alone or with different assistants, but he has worked exclusively with Reed since the mid-1990s. They sell their work at fine retail galleries around the country.
