She wanted copper with a patina. I chose to use some twisted wire and a bail to go along with it. Chrysocolla shattuckite.

The bail looks great on it. I like the twisted wire, gives it a little bit of extra zing.

Sometimes, I like the twisted wire, too. Depends on the piece, I guess. But, I cringe when I see a whole piece done with it- too much.

The copper wire & bail with the chrysocolla/shattuckite are a perfect match for this pendant.
