Double Heart upcycled copper hand formed pendant

I hand formed this copper pendant from heavy 12 gauge upcycled copper wire. After shaping it I hammered it down with a hammer and anvil to have a flat surface. I then silver soldered the connections to make this a solid and sturdy pendant. I then worked it down by hand to smooth out the surface and buffed it out to a beautiful and shiny finish. Finally I added a handmade copper jump ring to attach this pendant to a necklace. Lots of love went into creating this wonderfully beautiful, unique, and highly fashionable upcycled copper double heart pendant. COPPER Various forms of copper have been used for medicinal purposes throughout the history of mankind. Today, as more information becomes available, alternative health care and home remedies are gaining popularity. Copper is a trace element (Cu) which has been well accepted for it's reported healing properties and its role in defending our bodies against infection. People who are deficient in copper may benefit from wearing copper jewelry, since it can be absorbed through the skin. Jewelry is a good way of taking in the small amount of the mineral needed. The healing properties of copper, in the form of bracelets, necklaces, rings, or earrings, can allow a minimal amount of the mineral into the body without overwhelming it. Some wearers of copper jewelry find it relieves the symptoms of arthritis and circulation problems.
