Category: Jewellery Making Tools

Shape square and rectangular bangles with precision using this natural wood mandrel, made to maintain sharp edges during forming.

What it does

This solid wood mandrel provides a consistent 14-inch domed square profile, allowing you to form bracelets from square or rectangular stock without distorting the cross-section. Its smooth, natural wood finish protects polished non-ferrous metals from scratches during hammering and shaping. The subtly rounded corners prevent overly sharp internal angles, ensuring a clean finish on your bangles and cuffs.

How to use it

  • Secure your metal stock onto the mandrel.
  • Hammer and shape the metal around the square profile.
  • Use the domed end for initial forming and finishing.

Who it's for

An essential tool for UK bench jewellers and silversmiths working with square or rectangular wire and strip. Ideal for apprentices learning to form bangles and cuffs, it replaces the need for makeshift jigs and offers a dedicated solution for maintaining precise geometry.

Hannah ★★★★★

The domed square profile is a game-changer — my bangles come off with crisp, sharp edges instead of rounding over like they did on my old round mandrel. The 14-inch length gives plenty of room for larger pieces, and the wood feels solid enough to hammer on without worrying about dents. Took a few tr

Finally, a mandrel that actually keeps square edges crisp instead of rounding them off — the wood feels solid and smooth. Shaped a couple of silver bangles on it yesterday and they came out exactly the right size.

Richard ★★★★★

I love that this mandrel keeps the edges crisp on square bangles — no more accidentally rounding them off. The 14-inch length gives me plenty of room to shape even larger pieces comfortably.
