The first piece of copper jewelry I made was when I was learning how to form a copper cuff and handling a hammer. I learned there is a rhythm when striking the metal. Hammering came natural for me so I decided to add this texture to my jewelry. I owe all my techniques to my wonderful husband the jeweler and mentor.
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 piece of copper jewelry 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.
