Bronze Nugget Jewelry by Little Toro Designs

Minimalist style does not mean minimal impact! These elegant everyday earrings and necklaces feature beautifully simple brass nuggets, attatched to sterling silver ear wire or hung from sterling silver necklace chains. Entirely handcrafted right here in Tucson by Tawney of Little Toro Designs!

Tucson artist Tawney Weir of Little Toro Designs dabbles in many mediums and crafts, but metal smithing is her true passion. Inspired by the minutiae of nature, the shape of nesting birds, the texture of reptile skin, the shadows of a palm frond, Tawney creates striking jewelry and decoration with natural geometric shapes, and bright bold colors. The hallmark hues and forms of Little Toro Designs are entirely handcrafted using only quality sourced materials and traditional smithing techniques right here in Tucson, AZ, at Tawney’s home studio. While she works with many metals, including bronze and sterling silver, her most iconic and plentiful creations are carefully crafted copper plates, covered with a colorful coat of elegant enamel.
