Rings of Copper
Artist: Patti Kaplan (Pittsburgh, PA)
Patti found the blue copper wire in this bracelet at a scrap yard, but didn’t know what to do with it for a long time. One day, as she sold a gold Byzantine bracelet at her store in Pittsburgh, the solution dawned on her: "I could do the same link with a different medium." Using 14 gauge copper wire to supplement the blue copper wire found at the scrap yard, Patti wove this piece with the thought that "teenagers and boys would not only love the design, but the price too!"
