More Turquoise and Copper





I have had all of the components for this design floating around in my head for awhile and finally got it executed. I am trying to decide whether to patinate the copper or not, I find it difficult to get away from enjoying the copper while it is shiny but appreciating its vintage look as it oxidates. Still pondering!

  1. Cool piece! It looks like it is dripping with those gorgeous beads.

  2. Thanks Tela. I am considering, after seeing the photos of this piece here, adding some more copper wire and/or turquoise beads to the bare copper pieces on the frame. Even though those are textured wire on the curved frame piece it looks too bare to leave? So, I may change that. Still thinking.
