This tag is an upcycled piece of 1/4 inch copper pipe that was hand-forged. Repeated cycles of annealing and hammering transformed it from a bit of plumbing into a unique piece that can adorn your pup, purse, or keychain. It has a rustic patina that will continue to deepen over time.
 
The jumprings are hand cut out of 18 gauge copper. They are strong, but excessive pulling could cause them to open up. The blue tiger eye bead will really show it's stuff when it catches some sunlight. The wrapped wire helps to keep the bead secure.
