Navajo artist Hinton Williams Jr. (aka Red Feather) shows us each step in the process of handcrafting these bracelets. Music in the background is his song The Arts of Medicine, which you can find on red feather's channel at: • The Arts of Medicine

First Class!!!
i remember in elementary art class we made pendants and bracelets with copper
Very beautiful work. Great craftsmanship. What thickness copper do you make your bracelets out of ? And, will you have any for sale in your Etsy store in the future ?
Lindo trabajo....qué utiliza para oxidar el cobre??? Saludos desde Ecuador sudamérica
Hi, fantastic work, but I am curious about a few things. First a little background on me. I'm a former engineer that due to ill health and slowly going deaf. Got into the metal casting and jewelry making. Here in the UK we use ISO (metric) and imperial measures but I am led to understand that you use imperial measures only, so why are you using both as well? Do you buy your flat bar or cast it yourself? May I suggest that when you are using your doming tool work from the ends of the piece towards the middle then it will be easier to work the sides of the bangle. Do you clear coat the items to prevent verdigris transfer to skin? Love the video. Hope everything goes well with you and yours . Big hello from Wales 🏴
Amazing ❤
You make it look easy - and it is not! Getting all the stamps just so is a Skill.

Local Native shops is where Red Feather got most of his stamps, but you can find them online and he custom made a couple himself.
Beautiful work but I couldn’t understand your instructions because the music was too loud.

Music on the background makes me calm, wander, superb and love the indigenous work❤️
Would be a cool vid if you turned off that compressor or whatever busted machinery is making that racket.
How come you let white guy smudge wrong way
