These handmade copper earrings are rectangle frames with fine gauge wire wrapped at a diagonal up the rectangle around frosted and trasparent orchid purple glass seed beads. The ear wires are also made by hand from copper wire. The design has an architectural quality reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright stain lass windows. This is an artistic, versatile and eye catching design suitable for any occasion.

Copper - I use natural 100% copper wire to create copper jewelry items. It is not treated with a lacquer or wax. Copper naturally oxidizes over time and develops a patina. Some people love that look and some prefer to keep it shiny. Slow the oxidization process by wiping your copper jewelry with a soft clean cloth before and after each use to keep it clean. You can easily clean oxidized copper jewelry and return it to bright and shiny by soaking it in a mixture of lemon juice and salt for 30-60 seconds, rinse with water, and dry. Try it with a penny.
