I started hammering copper at 29, in a one-room workshop my grandmother left me in Sedona. That was 40 years ago. I haven't stopped since. In that time, the entire jewelry industry replaced real metal with stainless steel and called it progress. Mall kiosks. Pandora. Amazon. Everywhere you look, the same shiny metal that has nothing to do with the metal humans actually wore for thousands of years. My grandmother would have called it costume. For 4,000 years, every civilization that mattered wore copper — Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, Ayurvedic healers in India, the people of the American Southwest where my workshop sits. None of them wore it for decoration. They wore it because copper, in contact with the body, did something. I make every piece the same way they did. By hand. From 99.9% pure copper. No plating. No machines. No factory. I'm offering 3 of my hand-hammered pieces for $99.95 with free shipping — the first bundle I've ever done. I make two pieces a day. When this sells out, you wait. — Vera
