This original hand made jewelry design is a fold forrmed 2" copper cuff bracelet. Finish is a unique chocolate verdigris patina. Verdigris is normally green, but long exposure to the patina solution produced this chocolate color with lines of turquoise verdigris along the folds. Sealed inside and outside with quality non-toxic lacquer to preserve the patina and protect skin and clothing from tarnish. Can also be made to order. See "How to Measure Your Wrist" on this page for instructions. This particular patina is an unexpected result and may not be entirely reproducible. If I cannot reproduce it well I will get in touch with you to see if you want a different finish, an exchange for a different item, or a refund.

Fold forming builds up lines and zones of hardness with repeated cycles of heating, folding and hammering and the patterns produced have a distinctly organic, elemental look.
Patinas are natural surface changes on metal that are produced in nature by long exposure to the elements, We don't have that long so I develop patinas with common materials whenever possible, in this case household ammonia mixed with table salt. Normally that produces a green patina, but extra long exposure created this lovely chocolate color with verdigris highlights along the folds.
