Sheets of copper and silver are fused into a single block, then forged, carved and rolled until the layers come to the surface as loops and islands. The soft grey rings across the warm brown ground are the silver showing through the copper. The pattern happens once and cannot be repeated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pendant is framed by a sterling \u003cstrong\u003egallery bezel\u003c\/strong\u003e — a lacy row of tiny arches running the whole edge. The copper carries the color; the silver gives it the frame. The earrings match it in the same copper-and-silver mokume gane.
