This handcrafted piece has as its focal a unique carved geometric Red Jasper copper wrapped pendant measuring 1 3/16" x 1 1/16". There are 4 x 13mm Brecciated Jasper Tube beads and 4mm Jasper round beads included in this earthy necklace.  I've also added 4mm corrugated copper beads. The copper color and jasper really compliment each other. This necklace is closed with copper hook and eye clasp.

Keeping copper clean and dry, removing any oil or perspiration helps prevent oxidation. Although it can tarnish over time, copper resists tarnish better than many other jewelry metals (including sterling which turns black). When it does oxidize it takes on a soft brown, antiqued color as it darkens, a much sought after "vintage" look in jewelry. The tarnish on copper can be easily removed if you prefer a bright look. If you do prefer the bright look, keep your copper piece in an airtight bag or jewelry box to prevent tarnish when not wearing. In addition, Copper jewelry is often considered to have healing properties
