Mandala Earrings on Pure Copper, Sterling Silver Ear Wires, Bohemian StyleFun, everyday copper earrings! I started with a thick sheet of pure copper and patterned the mandala. The copper was then shaped into the unique lotus flower like design. I created the sterling silver rings and ear wires, soldering the jump ring on and the tag with my maker mark. The earrings measure about 2 1 2 inches from the top of the ear wire to the bottom of the circle and they are about 1 1 2 inches wide. I've given the earrings a light patina,
