Turquoise has been cherished across cultures for centuries, often associated with protection, wisdom, and positive energy. Paired with the grounding nature of copper, this ring connects you to both ancient traditions and contemporary artistry.

My Artisanal Process

Each ring undergoes a special patina process using liver of sulfur solution that gives the copper a rich, dark, almost steely appearance initially. I carefully dip each piece in a warmed liver of sulfur bath, controlling the darkness by timing the exposure, then neutralize the chemical reaction with a baking soda solution. After this patina is applied, I tumble each ring for approximately 20 minutes with steel shot to polish the copper and remove excess tarnish, creating a beautiful finish that highlights the intricate wirework.

Caring for Your Ring

The dark patina will naturally lighten over time, revealing more of the copper's natural warmth. To preserve your ring's finish:

• Store in a jewelry box or tightly closed container when not wearing to minimize air exposure
• Remove before washing hands, showering, swimming, or sleeping
• Keep dry to prevent unwanted green patina that can develop when copper meets moisture
• Handle with care to maintain the precise wirework and stone setting

Each ring represents hours of meticulous handcrafting, connecting you to both the earth's beautiful minerals and the ancient art of metalworking. Whether choosing this piece for yourself or as a meaningful gift, you'll be wearing a truly unique creation that tells a story.

Note: The black and clear crystals are for demonstration only and do not come with the ring.
