Hand hammered Copper Oak Leaf

Description

Oak Leaves- symbols of strength and endurance

I hammered this copper oak leaf to shape and burnished the surfaces to a rustic glow. These leaves are most often worn as a large pendant that makes a bold statment. It could also be hung as an ornament or on the wall as a small sculpture.

I would be happy to include a cotton cord necklace if you wish to use it as a pendant. Just let me know in the notes to seller during the purchase process.

It is sealed with tung oil varnish to slow down the aging process. Over time it will slowly age in tune with your own body and environment. Copper usually oxidizes to a rich brown or sometimes to greenish tones in the crevices, depending on its environment.

From top of the loop to the bottom of the leaf it measures approximately 3-1/2 inches or 9 cm. Its widest point measures 2 inches or 5 cm.

All purchases are packaged in lovely gift bags and shipped by US mail. International buyers are responsible for any taxes, fees or duties levied after I pay the initial US postage.
