Copper Patina Hammered Dangle Earrings

These rustic copper earrings have been sanded, tumbled, hammered and then "painted" with heat to bring out tones of gold, orange, blues and purples. Earrings measure 2-1/2" in length and a 5/8" wide. Hand-formed ear wires are an oxidized Sterling Silver.

Copper is left untreated, so they will develop a natural patina which will continue to alter the colors over time. Some will become more pastel, some get darker, some move into the gold and pink tones.
