For thousands of years, people of the earth have worked with copper; fashioning, molding and shaping it into beautiful creations.

Award-winning artist and Designer, Doreen Korman has indeed accomplished that.   

Each piece is hand-crafted,  with no two ever quite alike. Genuine copper is used and each ornament is sealed with an exclusive, non-yellowing acrylic sealer.  According to the artist, inherent ingredients in the copper used, verdigris application and technique, and weather conditions all play a part in creating the unique patina of each ornament.

Doreen uses only the finest trims available. Semi-precious stones adorn several of her ornaments.  Each stone, in itself,
is noted for it's spiritual representation:

ABALONE:     A Source of Fertility and Protection

AMETHYST:    The Great Healer of all levels of
                 Body, Mind and Spirit;
The Power 
                
to Control Evil Thoughts.

TURQUOISE:  Communication, Health and Well-Being.

Whether used as Christmas ornaments, gift wrapping accents, guest towel decorations, drapery ties, napkin rings or hanging from candles; these artful accessories command instant attention.

For Easy Care:

Usually just a light dusting is necessary.

If a more through cleaning is needed, simply swish the ornament in slightly sudsy, lukewarm water and let air dry.

Please, Do Not Soak or Use Polishes of Any Kind!


Doreen Korman's search for excellence in her work influences all aspects of her life.  "My primary inspiration comes simply from the thrill of creating," explains the artist.  "Regardless of the medium or endeavor, I'm constantly striving for a total balance in design, color and visual excitement.  I research projects with a vengeance.  My ultimate goal is to communicate my passion for beauty to everyone in my life through the objects I make."
