Copper Oak Leaf Cuff Bracelet, Medium width Copper Bracelet
This bracelet is from my line called "Ancient Colors".
This line is all handmade and formed from 16 gauge brass sheet metal. I then gave them a wonderful patina using my own recipes, so that they look like they were just excavated from an ancient archeological site! Greece, Rome, Egypt??? You decide.
These are very satisfying to design and create. As these are completely handmade, no two will ever be alike. You cannot fully control how the patina will develop, but that is what I love about using patina with brass and copper!
These are a hefty 16 gauge copper . The bracelets are formed on a mandrel and then the patina is developed. Getting the perfect patina can take a couple of days. I then added a copper oak leaf that I curved and gave a dark patina. The oak leaf is securely nail head riveted to the cuff.
Finally, the cuffs are sealed with 3 coats of shipping a matte sealant to preserve and protect the patina. The sealant on the inside of the cuff will eventually wear off due to contact with your skin. There is no way to avoid this. You can periodically paint the inside of your cuff with clear nail polish to avoid discoloration of your skin.
***please keep all of your Cat's Meow Jewelry out of the shower, pool, spa and hot tub** as this will affect the finishes.
