Description
These were done a while ago when I was still in high school.The upper left piece is a pirate face with a pirate hat. The hat is actually copper with just black fabric glued to it. The eye and eye patch were also made of copper. Pretty sure the base for the item was brass, could be bronze. I'm not even sure anymore.
The one below it is a button with bronze/brass and copper. The darkness on top is caused by a chemical that when brushed on copper makes it turn a dark blackish color. The name of the chemical escapes me, though.
The other one is a ring we HAD to do. Hated doing that. Silver with brass.
The other one is probably my favorite. Its Cloisonne. Basically powdered glass I think it was put into a very hot oven thing, and then it comes out all shinny. Powdered glass on copper on wood.
