Troll Maid handcrafted copper crown for cosplay ren fair deals or other fantasy dress

I have consolidated my Troll Maid line of deals jewelry into my Brazen Wench store, so it all is right here in one place for you!

Enjoy wearing this fantasy crown for Ren Fair, cosplay and other events. . . or when you just want to feel like royalty! Handcrafted from copper with an approximate 22" (56 cm) circumference. I recommend wearing it over a veil, as was often done by women of yore. I've included an historic image of Eleanore of Aquitaine above. https://britishheritage.com/history/history-eleanor-aquitaine

All of my copper items are made from solid copper. I do not work with plated goods. You can find more of my work at LeiManu.com.

Copper has been important to humans for over 10,000 years. It is one of the few metals that we find in nature in a directly usable metallic form. Because of this, humans have been using copper since before 8000BCE. Around 5000BCE, copper was the first metal to be smelted from sulfide ores. About 4000BCE copper was the first metal to be cast into a shape in a mold, and around 3500BCE, it was the first metal to be purposefully alloyed with another metal (tin) to create bronze.

Copper is antimicrobial, and ancient peoples noted that water stored in copper vessels did not develop slime.

Many spiritual properties also are claimed for copper, from calming to improved psychic and physical health.

Many of my copper pieces are from reclaimed copper. Through our educational work in schools, museums, libraries, and public parks, my husband and I teach environmental and cultural awareness. We do our best to apply what we teach in all aspects of our lives. Our livelihood comes from manufacturing custom lighting. We encourage our customers to use light responsibly, and work with architects and landscape designers to create lighting that is beautiful and environmentally friendly.

Hawaiʻi is the most isolated landmass on Earth. Transporting materials to the island, and transporting waste off of the island create a huge carbon footprint. By using scrap copper, glass, and other materials right here, instead of shipping it off-island for recycling, reduces the transportation costs by 50%.

Your purchase of this crown not only supports an artist and small business, but it helps to reduce the waste stream and carbon footprint in Hawaiʻi.

For your support, I offer my deepest "Mahalo," my thanks. Have a beautiful and blessed day.
