Variation: Each piece is hand-crafted individually and will vary slightly in appearance. When ordering you will receive a replica of the original design using the same processing. Slight differences in the design will occur due to the hand-made nature of copper metalwork. The photographs in the gallery show a number of versions of the design on multiple backgrounds to give the most true to life image.
Metal: Solid copper metal with a patina finish that has been polished to reveal coppery highlights. The copper has been sealed with a hard wax to slow down the patina process. Over time the pieces will need buffing to restore the highlights.
