I Made Unique Jewelry From Copper Wire And Natural Stones

I'm a craftsman from Ukraine. All my life I liked to create something with my own hands. Once I saw work in the wire wrap technique and just fell in love!! The results of my love you can see below in the photo!

Each piece of jewelry is created entirely by me, beginning with the sketch ending with photos. In my jewelry, I use copper, natural stones and glass. This seemingly simple metal, but the jewelry of it after patination and polishing don't look so simple.

The first time I started made from metal in 2015. Having only pliers and a couple of hammers, I began to try to make my first jewelry. But I couldn't do much, I lacked the tools, experience and knowledge.

For some time I had to leave my hobby as it didn't bring any income. At this time I graduated from the university and in February 2016 I defended my master's degree.

At first I was looking for work in my specialization, but in the end I realized that it was not mine and began to look for ways of realizing myself in other spheres. And then I returned to my hobby. I opened my store on the Etsy in March 2017.

I got new tools and started to study new crafting techniques - I learned how to solder copper, cut out sheet metal, put stones into bazel and other new techniques.

Now I'm still at the beginning of my way, but I hope you appreciate my efforts and works!
