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."
