Today we're going to talk about how to patina copper jewelry like a pro. This is the exact finishing and polishing process that I use on my own wire woven jewelry. And it works just as well on silver, brass, and bronze wire jewelry as it does on copper.

Best of all, it only requires one smelly chemical, Liver of Sulfur (LOS), and an affordable jewelry tumbler. So, whether you're a hobbyist or a budding wire weaving pro working to grow your small handmade business, this simple 7step patina and polishing process will work for you!
