Each disc of etched copper has a combination pin/pendant back so they can be worn as a brooch or as a necklace. Background is blackened and copper is treated with a non tarnish dip then coated with an anti-tarnish lacquer.
Be aware that every piece is individually hand made and may vary slightly from the picture. If you wish I can email an image of the actual pin/pendant ordered for your approval before shipping.
The Disc Art pieces on sale here are my "production" pieces - standard designs etched in copper with a black background in the 1.25" (Large) and 1" (medium) size. I greatly enjoy creating custom pieces - In addition to copper I also work in brass and nickel silver, add colors using faux enameling, and create buttons, earrings, and conchos. You can check out some more individualized pieces on my Etsy site:
