Each item that "Of Nature" completes consists of an actual piece of nature covered in copper.
None of our pieces are mass produced nor do we use impressions made from molds. Each one of our pieces is unique and handmade.
The patinas are produced by mixing chemicals that oxidize the surface of the copper. The differences in colors are created by different combinations and layering of solutions. I mix my own patinas giving slight variations in colors each time they are mixed. After appling several layers of patinas, each piece is sealed to maintain its color and hand wax.
Please keep in mind that the images shown of our jewelry are examples and that the piece you order will differ slightly just like in nature!
The images of the boxes, containers and sculpture are the exact pieces being offered for sale.
