Copper FYI...


Here are some before and after shots of our copper. We do not treat our copper in any way because many people like for it to tarnish on its own. When you first receive your copper pendant, it will be shiny like a new penny. However, over time, it will tarnish to a nice antiqued look. You can keep your copper shiny by brushing it with fine steel wool. We don't recommend a liquid tarnish remover such as Brasso because it can remove the oxidation in the lettering. You can also let it tarnish like a penny and create a timeless patina.

  1. I just found your work this last weekend at the Whale Sale in Whitestown. I love your jewelry!!! It is so awesome and so reasonably priced. It will definitely be on my Christmas list for this year and possibly my gift list for family members. So glad to have found you and that I'm able to support someone local. I'm so jealous of your creativity. Best Wishes and God Bless.
