Copper and Sterling
OK last post I explored using goldfilled more... while stressing I still love copper and sterling, and in fact I love them together!! Case in point... This large pendant is copper sheet ( I think it started out as 24GA however I don't know for sure.. it's thinner now) cut then hammered until it had this wonderful curvy-Q spiral going on. I had to anneal it once as the metal got pretty stiff.. then I wrapped in in 24GA sterling silver wire and added a bail. the pictures do not do this piece justice! I made matching earrings...
