Forged Copper Pendant

I hand-forged this twisted copper pendant out of a piece of 1/8" copper wire.

To shape it, I used a blowtorch to heat the copper, then hammered or twisted it while it was red hot. The final pendant was cooled in water, then polished.

After learning hand-forging, I was so enthralled with how easy the process was that I bought myself a blowtorch and more copper wire, which I used to make more forged jewelry!
