I thought I would try a few more.
I prefer the aged copper compared to shiny copper but I have had a few people ooh and aah over the shiny copper. I'm pretty sure I will always add the patina though... it seems to complete the piece. The stone is an acrylic bead that had a nice glimmer that I couldn't capture in the photo.
Here is the before and after - which do you prefer?? Should I add more patina to any of these?
Here are a few more... I had a glass bead kicking around and I thought it might make a nice choice for a ring. It has a wonderful blue/green iridescence to it.
I had a smaller round agate cabochon that I set into this one...
Last but not least, I set a tiny amethyst crystal in this one. I also braided the ring shank.
