Peter Chang's Amazing Bracelets!
In his workshop in Glasgow Peter Chang makes spectacular jewellery, like a bracelet he made from a mix of bought acrylics and old beads, map
pinheads and part of a broken shop-sign. Large but light, comfortable to wear but robust, his
bracelets are like sculpture that you can put your hand through.
Dazzling in their saturated colour, they are reminiscent of exotic plants and
creatures from the sea or science fiction.
