Just started working with copper – I usually use beads, leather & wire.
This inspires me to keep at it – a non-toxic patina would be fantastic. I’ve had bad skin reactions (even using gloves) to the first few I tried, but I keep being drawn to metalwork!

I will give you all the details you want, not sure about selling it when this format is so open and friendly. Thank you for your interest, just email me and I will give you my recipe for copper and curves.

These are so elegant and “high-end decorator”! If you ever decide to write up/sell a tutorial on making these, I would love to try it! Love the mix of the patina you’ve used on the one in your shop, and also love the gentle curves/scrolling of the embossing. I’m retiring in a couple of years, and will be downsizing/relocating. Would love to learn to make these for that home!

It looks quite addictive to create. What an inspiring variety of ways you can use these for jewelry and beyond!
