A beautiful hand selected raw birthstone has been copper electroformed onto an open cuff band. These designer pieces are perfect to wear solo. or even more fun to wrap together and wear stacked!
No two will be the same so allow for differences between pieces. Each stone is uncut or rough, the exception is moonstone. I use a cabochon instead of a raw stone, but each is still one of a kind.
Available in whole sizes 5US, 6US, 7US, 8US, 9US and 10US. Leave a message in the "special instructions to seller" box at check out of the size needed.

Electroforming is the process of building up copper deposits on any object. The process can be very slow and it almost has a mind of its own. Sometimes there are striations in the copper, sometimes pits, sometimes there are little copper spheres. The results are always beautiful and unexpected making each piece entirely unique. Each piece had been cleaned up by hand and finished in the tumbler. The copper is absolutely raw... no added chemicals or sealants.
To maintain the finish as long as possible, avoid prolonged exposure to water as well as harsh chemicals. The copper will oxidize and darken over time giving it a warm deep finish. This is natural and every oxidation is unique to the person who wears it and the environment in which they live. The copper grows with you. You can bring back the original sheen by gently rubbing it with a soft polish cloth. Greening may happen. It doesn't happen to everyone. I leave the metals raw to avoid causing any reactions to additional chemicals. Gold-plate will not tarnish. The fine silver plate can tarnish, but with care the finish should last a long time.
Andrea never disappoints. Everything I have purchased from her has been beautiful and obviously carefully crafted. I got 2 of the stacking rings and they look so amazing together and even worn alone.
