Copper Leaf Ornaments

Jim Charneski makes these leaf ornaments by hand out of copper and pewter.  They are inspired from the trees on his property in the Blue Ridge Mountains near Bakersville, NC.  Each one is sawed out by hand and then carefully etched  and bent into the shape of the leaf.

They would make beautiful keepsake Christmas ornaments or simple fall decor around the house.  People have used his bigger pieces for unique key holders on a hallway table.  They are nice to put out during the fall before the Christmas decor comes out.
