Handmade Portraits: Bruce Metcalf

Bruce Metcalf has dedicated almost forty years of his life to the creation and historiography of American Studio Craft. He makes his exquisite jewelry with the utmost care and precision. On average most of the pieces take two months to create, whereas some take years before he perfects the final nuances.
After stints as sociology and archeology majors, Metcalf found himself transferring to the jewelry department during college in the 1970. It was a bold move because the crafts weren’t highly regarded within the fine art establishment at that time. However, the move felt right, and studio craft is where Metcalf has stayed ever since.
Etsian Tara Young aka weirdwolf met with Metcalf in his studio in Philadelphia to talk about American Studio Craft, alt craft and the intersection of acedemia and the craft movement.
