Red Agate Hammered Copper Necklace
Red Agate Hammered Copper Necklace
⭐This rustic Copper and Red Agate necklace was handmade by cutting, filing, and hammering 22 guage bare copper sheet metal.
⭐A 10 mm Red Agate stone cabochon has been set into a soldered bezel cup.
⭐The pendant is about 7/8 of an inch, not including the bail.
⭐Comes ready to wear on a 20 inch, brown, 2 mm thick, genuine leather cord. The end caps and lobster clasp are made from zinc and copper.
Everything is lead and nickel free.
⭐Red Agate represents health, prosperity, grounding, protection, and courage. It is associated with the Root chakra and is thought to restore energy. It is very closely related to Carnelian.
✨Please understand that since these stones are natural, they all have a slightly different shade or different opacity. My photos were taken in direct sunlight, so the stones may appear brighter than when indoors.
✨The pendant is also handmade, so each one is slightly different.
☆Please keep in mind that handmade products will never be exact matches , the exact item you receive may not be pictured but will be very similar. If you prefer to pick which item you receive then send me a message and I'll take a picture of what I have left.

☆About Copper-
Copper is a hypoallergenic metal, so it is safe to wear. I use pure bare copper in my copper designs so there is never any lead or nickel. Copper does not rust but it does oxidize over time . This means it will darken as time goes by, turning a darker brown, and eventually after a long period of time it can turn green (think about the Statue of Liberty 🗽) Copper jewelry can create a harmless green stain on skin due to oxidation, especially if you sweat a lot. This easily washes off with soap and water and is natural and safe. Green skin is Not a sign of metal allergies. It is extremely rare to have a copper allergy.
Copper was one of the first metals to be used by humans. The first piece of metal jewelry found was a copper pendant.
Copper is used as an alloy in many metals, including brass, bronze, sterling silver, and rose gold.
