Hand formed "cups" or flowers of copper. Then enamel is added and fired. To achieve this color I used several colors of the sunset blending and shading and firing numerous times. I made the cups or flowers out of a thinner gauge copper so they are still lightweight. They are assembled using sterling silver and teeny weeny bright orange carnelian The silver is oxidized for a better contrast and to show off the detail.
Total Length: 18" not including drop
Total Drop: 2-3/4"
Largest cup: 1/2"
Smaller cup 3/8"
Enameling is fusing glass to metal, in this case copper. Each piece is fired multiple times including the back to 1500 degrees.
