August gemstone is"PERIDOT" which cleanses the mind of negativity and aids in friendship
I use a rolling mill, which I layered copper sheet with a textured sheet of steel that my husband has made. This allows me to make different markings to get the pattern onto the metal. We roll it many times to get the texture that I like and then oxidize the metal to enhance the beautiful textures.

Taking care of your copper jewelry: This copper pendant is high polished and oxidized so it will keep its patina that it has. If you want to shine it up just use a polishing cloth, which we have available under Accessories
