I create my copper finishes using a Japanese technique called "Hiirodo" where I heat the finished copper shape until brightly glowing, then plunge it into boiling water to achieve a plum red appearance. I contrast the red with a layered vermeil half-circle with oxidized sterling flecks. The "wave" components are 18k gold-vermeil or oxidized sterling silver. The parts move independently. Posts and backs are sterling silver.
