CRAFTSMANSHIP & MATERIAL NOTE
This piece is crafted using copper-gold plating with drip glaze technique. The glaze surface undergoes a natural oxidation process over time, gradually developing a vintage patina. This transformation mimics the formation of verdigris (basic copper carbonate, Cu₂(OH)₂CO₃)—a centuries-old phenomenon observed in bronze artifacts, where copper reacts with atmospheric moisture, oxygen, and carbon dioxide .
Scientific Explanation
1. Initial Protection: The gold plating acts as a barrier, slowing copper oxidation.
2. Gradual Exposure: With wear, micro-scratches expose underlying copper, initiating reactions:
• Step 1: Copper oxidizes to CuO (black copper oxide) in humid conditions.
• Step 2: CuO reacts with CO₂ and H₂O to form Cu₂(OH)₂CO₃ (green verdigris) .
3. Aesthetic Stabilization: After 3-6 months, oxidation stabilizes into a mottled antique finish, resembling heirloom silver patina.
Recommended Maintenance
1. Accelerated Aging (Optional):
• For faster patina development, lightly expose to humidity (e.g., place in a steamy bathroom for 2 hours weekly).
2. Controlled Exposure:
• Avoid excessive moisture to preserve gold plating integrity.
3. Enhanced Longevity:
• Clean with pH-neutral jewelry cleaner monthly to prevent uneven oxidation.
Why This Matters
The oxidation process is a testament to craftsmanship, creating a living artwork that evolves with its wearer—a hallmark of artisanal jewelry design.
