Take a breath and know you can be steady and calm during stressful times. 
 
Your handcrafted earrings have been put together using beautiful copper wire.  Each earring holds a single polished green agate bead (dyed), resting above a hand-hammered copper spiral.  A spiral is a timeless symbol of personal growth, transformation, and the natural unfolding of your life's journey. 
 
Your earrings measure 1¼ inches long, and the wear wire is gold-plated 316 stainless steel.  
 
A note about copper jewelry:
Copper is a beautiful metal, and while this copper is coated to slow oxidation, it will naturally deepen in colour over time, developing a unique patina that reflects how it's been worn and loved.
 
I don’t rush this transformation with harsh chemicals. Instead, I allow each piece to evolve in its own time, forming soft, rich tones of bronze, chestnut, and sometimes even hints of green. If you prefer to keep your copper bright, you can gently polish it with a soft cloth or jewelry-safe pad.
