Hot off the presses...literally!
Check back here often, as I will be posting photos of my newest creations frequently.
I went to a cooperative jeweler's workspace last weekend, and left with several new pieces.

These earrings are copper with brass. I created the pattern, textured both metals through a roller, punched the shapes through a hydraulic press. After the pieces were shaped and curved, I patina'd the copper in a liver of sulphur bath. The metals are both sealed to protect the finish.
My assistant bought them off my ears! These are one-of-a-kind earrings, but I can do something similar if you like.

These are patina'd copper, called Copper Verde (very appropriate, don't you think?) The beads are carved turquoise, and they hang on niobium ear wires because not only do they coordinate with the metal, but niobium is hypoallergenic.
These will be available at the event I'm sponsoring on July 12, 2018. Check out the Events Page for more details.

Copper textured rectangles with onyx beads. The neat thing about these earrings, aside from the texture, is the beads are are hanging from a long wire behind the rectangle.
These one-of-a-kind, not exactly custom jewelry, earrings are lightweight and make a statement.
These earrings will also be at the Focus After Five Community Networking event on July 12th.

The last of the new kids, these are textured, patina'd copper triangles with niobium ear wires. Not pictured are the unpatina'd version of this same texture and shape. Ear wires are copper, so they match.
I had so much fun playing with these metals, and I hope you enjoyed the peek into my creative mind.

All of these earrings are one-of-a-kind, but similar, custom creations are never far away.
