Junkyard Alchemist
The Junkyard Alchemist is the metalwork and jewelry project of David Mayer, blending recycled precious metals, ancient alloying techniques, and a raw industrial aesthetic. Each piece is made in small batches using silver, copper, and traditional hand-finishing methods, creating work with texture, age, and character. The work draws inspiration from ancient Japanese alloys such as shibuichi and shakudō, techniques known for producing rich, aged surfaces that feel old-world and timeworn. Built for collectors who appreciate handmade objects, The Junkyard Alchemist creates pieces meant to be carried, worn, and passed down.
