Man’s Sterling Silver & Copper Dog Tag Necklace

Sterling silver & copper dog tag necklace

I had a special request from a friendĀ for a dog tag necklace, so I made one using a few new skills from my jewelry fabrication class. I tossed around a few different design ideas, but this is the final product.

The pendant is made from copper sheet riveted onto silver sheet. The copper pieces and the silver chain were a little too shiny, so I applied a patina to those parts and sanded the rest for a brushed finish. The darker patinas give it a heavier, more masculine feel.
