Mariah Wheeler "Copper Verdigris Ripple Necklace" at the Joyful Jewel 8-25-13

"Copper Verdigris Ripple Necklace"
Mariah Wheeler
Copper, Sterling Silver Chain & Clasp
$59

      This is one of my newest pieces, a dimensional necklace of copper that looks as if it would ripple like cloth.  The color is a verdigris induced by acidic chemicals making the beautiful green of aged copper.  There is some brown wax pigment added here and there and the untreated copper shows through a bit too.  I wanted a little shine so used a satin lacquer to protect the piece in place of the matte that I often use.  The chain is sterling silver with big links so that you can hook it anywhere depending on where you'd like the necklace to fall and ripple along with the fabric of your clothing.
     If it's still here Sept. 13, 14 & 15 during Joyful Jewel's 3rd Anniversary Customer Appreciation Sale, it will be 10% off along with the other copper, silver and glass pieces in my jewelry case.
