Atlanta Artist - Metallo Bianco

Cassandra Procopio is the jewelry designer behind Metallo Bianco.  She is an extraordinary metalsmith with a great eye for keeping her designs simple, but elegant.  I even had the privilege of visiting her studio & seeing first hand how she uses her torch (yay, another pyromaniac!) to learn how she twists, hammers, solders, tumbles & polishes her work to perfection.  When I was cutting up copper pipes to make my own jewelry stands, I was calling Cassie multiple times for guidance on tools, supplies and guidance on how to not burn the ever-lovin snot out of myself as I am so not used to weilding a mobile torch.  I like my fire stationary, thank you very much!

Although mainly dedicated to jewelry, she is branching out into dog tags (below), paper weights (very cool, my SIL bought one for Christmas with our kids pic inside which was a BIG hit!) and journals which you can find in her Etsy shop at http://mbjewelry.etsy.com

I also felt it necessary to include a gratuitous pic of her beautiful cat Sasha :)
