These beauties are upcycled from a local manufacturer in Laurel, MS. They are then hand rolled through a embosser, oxidized, sanded, and sealed. Due to the nature of embossed, the pattern shown might differ slightly on each earring. 1" Your piece is pure copper! Over time, it will gracefully age, exposing the unique beauty innate to copper jewelry! To bring some shine back to your item, use a sunshine cloth on the parts that have oxidized.
