Beautiful Copper and Silver Infused Pendant

 

Rustic, brazen, bright, and beautiful.  This unusual pendant is going to be a show stopper.  All your friends will be intrigued.  I began by selecting a thick copper wire and piece by piece soldered it together.  After all the wire was soldered, I then gave it a texture.  From there, I infused Argentium sterling silver on the front and back of the pendant.  It has some weight to it, but will be a joy to wear. 

This pendant is displayed on a beautiful, antique patterned brass chain complete with an Argentium sterling silver closure.

Each piece is hand signed by me and I finish the front of the pendant with Renaissance Wax.  Renaissance Wax is used in Great Britain at the national galleries for preservation.
Argentium® Sterling Silver is a patented and trademarked alloy that is at least 92.5% pure silver, just like traditional sterling silver. What makes it different from traditional sterling silver is that a small amount of germanium replaces some of the copper that is usually the other 7.5% of sterling silver. Peter Johns, a professor of silver smithing at Middlesex University in England, invented Argentium® Sterling Silver in 1996.

Length of pendant approximately – 3 1/8 inches
