On the Craft Show website, they only show<a href="http://www.smithsoniancraftshow.org/Images5/Jewelry_Reyes.htm"> his rings</a>, but it's his limited edition series of coiled, twisted and knotted wooden bracelets that really appeal to me.<br /><br />The modern and elegant bracelets and cuffs by the Chicago based woodworker are formed by hand using a cold bend process and finished with natural bee's wax. The Cherry, Walnut, Maple and Rockelm woods can be rejuvenated by simply applying more natural bee's wax. Several of the styles are available in multiple wood options.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Walnut:</span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGTZwr1bHPd8CGxmT2dLl5Fd93vxzJqYnjZ8Mir6YV4GlUY6V5Ql86aOIZJ7YksZCjXX2_zdm-nPGGE0t7v8aGq08UbaO0Euth0j0MK6DwZ-u5CQNa8EWG0l3WLx3NID86BSbFMH1r2jU/s1600/P08187-P00002l.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5596665705809570018" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGTZwr1bHPd8CGxmT2dLl5Fd93vxzJqYnjZ8Mir6YV4GlUY6V5Ql86aOIZJ7YksZCjXX2_zdm-nPGGE0t7v8aGq08UbaO0Euth0j0MK6DwZ-u5CQNa8EWG0l3WLx3NID86BSbFMH1r2jU/s400/P08187-P00002l.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;
