Torque Bangle
You’ve asked and now it’s here! Learn how to make a
torque bangle
In this exciting online class, you’ll learn how to create a classic torque bangle – a timeless, open-ended design that slips elegantly onto the wrist. But this isn’t just any bangle…
You’ll discover how to make two innovative variations of this design:
A hinged torque bangle where the gemstone forms part of the secure clasp, blending beauty with practical engineering.
An interchangeable gemstone version that allows your customer to remove and swap out the stone — giving you flexibility, customisation, and a unique selling point for your jewellery.
In both versions, the gemstone does more than decorate — it becomes an essential part of the function, giving the wearer both style and versatility.
1. hinged stone
In the image above, the gemstone is secured to the left side of the wrist, with a hinged opening on the right for ease of wear.
2. removable stone
In the above example you can see that the stone can be fully removed from the bangle. This allows for interchangeable designs.
