Still Working on 2 dozen Etched Copper Earrings

Getting close to finishing the two dozen - but the studio is so hot and humid.


  I decided to change from store bought ear wires to handmade but I only had sterling silver  rather than fine silver. A little extra work removing firescale but worth it - they look much better.

still using the Ranger Patina's - love them  and they are dipped in the Permalac EF








The final ones I am going to use liver of sulpher to patina - I also bent them on the former  so tomorrow I'll finish them off

  2. They're great. I wonder why the jar of ferric chloride is standing unused in the cupboard? Is it possible to use the solution more than once?
    I intend to enamel mine.
