Parents anniversary gift
« on: October 27, 2015, 10:49:46 pm »
Hey fellas, just finished an anniversary gift for my parents. Roses are annealed and cold forged copper, stems are 3/8 forged steel, leaves are Forged from  5/16 round steel. Numbers are Forged steel and ribbon is hammered copper. The base is from a sheet of very pitted 1/8 steel, formed into a bowl shape. Finish is a gunblue patina and lacquer. It's about 16" tall. It was a lot of fun to make!:)
