Torc Jewelry Series: Link Necklace I – Silver

During ancient times Europeans wore metal neckpieces and bracelets that were twisted into a rigid ring called a Torc. The word torc means to twist, so I took inspiration both from the ancient forms and the meaning of the word to design my Torc Series.

The links on this necklace began as square wire that was forged on two sides to create the twisted shape. They were formed by hammering multiple times to create the final asymmetrical unit.  These hammered links are the same size as the Torc Earrings and joined by silver oval jump rings.
