Bare Copper Wire Wrapped Red and Gray Teardrop Agate Gemstone Pendant with Matching Carnelian Gemstone Earrings

Pendant Description:  The center gemstone pendant for this necklace set is a brick red and gray teardrop shaped agate gemstone.  I have wire wrapped the bail out of bare copper wire and have added a couple of twirls and curls just going around the pendant gemstone bead.  I have wire wrapped a loop at the bottom of the pendant and have added a round carnelian gemstone bead with a small gold faceted crystal on top.  This gives the pendant a bit of dangle.

The Hammered Choker:  I have hammered a choker out of bare copper.  It slides easily onto your neck with the opening in the back the pendant will rest in the V in the front.  With the opening in the back, it will fit most necks. 

Earring Description:  The earrings are made using the round carnelian gemstone bead with the gold crystal.  They are a replica of the dangle on the pendant.  These are wire wrapped onto a copper fishhook type ear wire.

Copper Tarnishing:  Just like pennies, copper tarnished differently.  Some pennies tarnish darker, some can turn green, some black.  I have used 10 gauge copper for the necklace, 22 gauge copper for the wire wrapped pendants, and different copper wire for the earrings.  These may not all tarnish at the same rate or the same color.  I will be sending a bag with an anti-tarnish patch for the choker, and one for the pendant and earrings.  This will keep the copper the bare copper color.  If you let the items set out, they will tarnish just like a new penny, but cannot tell you at what rate and they may not be the same color.
