This is a scarlet copper bangle.
The copper wire was hammered into shape with a large mallet,
and then textured with a smaller hammer.
When heated red-hot with a torch
and then quickly immersed in a borax solution,
it turns a deep crimson.
This is known as "hido," or scarlet copper,
an ancient metalworking technique passed down through generations.
This bangle offers a distinct touch.
