But boy, does it give a great result!

Thanks for your kind words.? When it comes to metal working there are so many processes to experiment with. Each one enhances the design

Hi Tandy. I am allergic to sulfa as well and it has never been an issue. The only allergy concern I have found so far is peanut oil. At one time I was using a peanut oil mixture to create a patina on copper. Even though the finish was coated I didn’t want to take a chance on any medical issues so I discontinued that process.

I wasn’t aware of the “blackened finish by the Liver of Sulphur” I guess this is an eye opener to me. I love the end product and its unique beauty.

You are SO creative. Seriously:-) Question: I’m allergic to Sulfa. Will this technique leave me allergic to the jewelry?

It is nice to know about this intricacy. As someone who wears jewelry, now I appreciate the creativity and patience of all those who makes jewelries. Beautifully crafted!
