Description This is my first finished metal work. I made the earring on the left first and since it turned out pretty large I decided the other one should be of a different size and shape.

The highlights here would be the shapes formed by the texture. In combination with the colour, I can't help but thinking it looks like burnt skin, cracks on a rock or some kind of fossil.

Materials: Pure copper, Sterling silver.
Methods: Annealing, hammering, soldering, fire patination, buffing

This looks awesome. I would like to see the backing of them. Is the silver riveted on the bottom or soldered?

I'll try to get a photo of the back The silver balls are soldered on the copper and are independent of the posts.
