Description from the seller
Copper is one of the few metals that occurs in nature in its native state, i.e., not alloyed with other elements.
This sphere is made of natural pure copper, mined from selected mines in the Western United States, one of the most iconic areas for copper mining since the nineteenth century. The appearance is that unmistakable look of solid copper: a warm metallic surface, with hues ranging from orange-red to golden-brown, crossed by micro natural ripples that reveal its artisanal workmanship.
Each sphere is cut from a solid block and polished to maintain the metal’s natural brilliance, while leaving visible the minor imperfections typical of handcrafting.
Copper has always been considered a sacred metal:
Associated with Venus, love, and harmony,
It stimulates the energetic flow, promoting the connection between body and spirit,
It is said to absorb negativities, acting as a shield for the aura,
Used to balance the chakras, particularly the second (sacral) and the fourth (heart).
In tradition, copper was used to construct ritual tools, amulets, water cups, and protective objects. Today it is still employed in grounding practices and for contact with Earth energy.
Copper is an excellent conductor of energy, both electrical and symbolic, and is also used in the construction of therapeutic pyramids and radionics circuits.
Its color gradually changes over time: in damp environments it may develop a natural greenish patina (copper oxide or “verdigris”), but it can be polished to shine again as if freshly forged.
This sphere can be used as: a collectible or meditation object, part of a collection of pure metals, or even as an anti-stress tool: holding a copper sphere in the hand stimulates the palm and the meridians.
