Your Questions About Copper Jewelry

Michael asks…
Copper jewelry?
So I want to find a really great, unique copper ring to have something inscribed on. I know exactly what I want, only problem is I don’t know anything about copper jewelry, do you? AND, I need to know a really great website or something to find copper rings on. Hopefully there are some experts out there stumbling across this!

Copper Jewelry answers:
Copper can turn your finger green/black depending on your body composition. In fact, the reason for tarnish in sterling silver jewelry is the low copper content added to silver for obtaining the desired properties, namely durability. That being said, Copper is a very important element in our body. When it comes to continuous exposure to copper (as in wearing a ring), one better make sure that the level of exposure is safe. Here’s a good resource to check: http://www.atsdr.cdc.gov/toxfaqs/tf.asp?id=205&tid=37
Tips: 1. You may dramatically slow down the corrosion process by covering the copper with lacquer. 2. Dipping copper objects in lemon salt solution turns it new.
Good luck in finding your copper ring!
