Vera's Coil Copper Anklet

The spiral at the center of this piece is the same shape people have been carving into rock and pressing into metal for longer than anyone can trace. I made this one for the people who feel something when they see it - who put it on their ankle and find themselves looking down at it during the day.

The spiral is formed from a single continuous copper strip, coiled by hand from the center outward, then joined to the band which I shape separately and curve gently so it sits right against the ankle. People who wear copper at the ankle tell me their joints feel steadier - their knees, their feet, the parts that carry everything.

This is one of the last anklets I'll make before I close my workshop. I hope the spiral finds the ankle it belongs on.

Pure copper is not magnetic, so a magnet will not stick to it. It has a warm, rosy color that slowly darkens into a natural patina, and it can always be polished back to its original shine.

Every Clara's Copper piece is 99.9% solid copper — never plated, never coated.

Copper naturally darkens over time. To bring back the shine, rub gently with a little lemon juice and salt (or a copper polishing cloth), rinse and dry completely.

Take it off before swimming or showering and store it in a sealed pouch to keep it bright longer. Read the full Copper Care guide.
