Forged Organic Copper and Brass Earrings
These earrings are hand fabricated from brass rod forged into a tapered, annieled, formed and woven through the hand formed copper sheet. The brass is then soldered to the sheet. The earwires feature matching forged brass with sterling silver wire wrapped and soldered, then formed and lightly hammered to retain their shape. The copper has a liver of sulfur patina applied and lightly sanded to show the high points. An application of microcrystalline wax helps protect the finish. They hang about 2.25” long and about .75” wide.
The earrings are listed on etsy. http://www.etsy.com/listing/75732285/forged-organic-copper-and-brass-earrings
