Rooftop jewelry, green patina copper earrings, on cards
Pieces of green patina copper

I am so fortunate to have a kind gentlemen/roofer who occasionally brings me chunks of  copper that has been removed from our local rooftops.

These pieces of copper are like rare gems to me. Their rich patinas were created by the passage of time and mother nature representing decades of history in the DC area.

The amount of time and environmental conditions of a given location determines the colors. They range from deep greens to powder blues.
