Tree Rooted in Turquoise

When I looked at this lovely turquoise cabochon, I just knew that it wanted a tree to grow out of. To make this necklace I used copper, brass and sterling silver metals. I hand cut and textured all the pieces and soldered them all together. I then pickel the piece with citric acid (which is an all natural made from citrus foods). Then a patinia is added to accent the turquois.
