These handmade copper earrings are large concentric hoops wrapped together in an intricate design with an single beaded dangle. Medium gauge wire is carefully spiraled into large concentric hoops and hammered by hand to strengthen. Fine gauge wire is used to weave an intricate pattern binding the hoops together. A single faceted amber glass bead dangles from the largest hoop.The ear wires are also handmade out of copper wire. These earrings have a very unique and artistic look sure to get you noticed.
Copper - I use natural 100% copper wire to create copper jewelry items. It is not treated with a lacquer or wax. Copper naturally oxidizes over time and develops a patina. Some people love that look and some prefer to keep it shiny. Slow the oxidization process by wiping your copper jewelry with a soft clean cloth before and after each use to keep it clean. You can easily clean oxidized copper jewelry and return it to bright and shiny by soaking it in a mixture of lemon juice and salt for 30-60 seconds, rinse with water, and dry. Try it with a penny.
