This little piece is pure Great Lakes geology... copper country you can wear. From Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, the stone carries a patchwork of earthy brick red, brown, cream and muted green, with natural copper-bearing material woven through the matrix. It has that wonderfully rugged look where the geology is doing all the decorating.
Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is world famous for its native copper deposits, formed through ancient volcanic activity and later mineral-rich fluids moving through fractures and openings in the rock. This piece keeps that mineralized host rock front and center rather than trying to turn it into something overly polished or precious.
