About this item

This artisan-crafted set features a hand-hammered copper bowl with a lustrous rose-gold patina, accompanied by three mood tokens. The bowl showcases intricate hammered texturing that catches and reflects light beautifully, while displaying the natural warmth and character of pure copper. Each piece bears the authentic marks of handcraftsmanship, with the tokens engraved with words 'NEUTRAL' and 'MOODY', creating a unique mindfulness or intention-setting collection. The copper develops a living finish that evolves over time, deepening in character and beauty.

Whether you’re moody or neutral ~ own your mood. This hand-hammered copper trinket bowl is the result of a “mood” being focused upon a constructive purpose! Hammer strokes - sinking and planishing. This sweet little dish is formed and revealed one controlled strike at a time, leaving behind thousands of tiny footprints. Watch the video in How It's Made to learn more.

Included are the bowl, and 3 small oval copper tokens, two of which are stamped with the words, MOODY and NEUTRAL. The third token is blank. You may request a custom word (up to 7 ALL CAPS letters) to be stamped on it, otherwise it will be left blank so that you may write your own word with a sharpie felt marker.

About the maker

wildgatherings

Since 1993, Wild Gatherings has been my creative playground. Today, my journey focuses on art, home décor, and jewelry handmade from raw, reclaimed, or recycled copper and silver, torch- and kiln-fired lead-free vitreous enamel, and gemstones. Living in the Pacific Northwest, I am inspired by the wild textures of lichen, moss, rough bark, flora & fauna, and flowing streams—and I try to bring those organic elements into every piece I make. Thank you for supporting an independent artist and appreciating the true meaning of handmade. Warmest regards, Shirley

Wildswalle Turner, Oregon | I am an artist & crafter in the Pacific Northwest who loves making copper & silver décor & jewelry.

Hello! I'm Shirley. Welcome to my Wild Gatherings. I truly appreciate you being here! I create functional and decorative metal art & jewelry, using mostly old-school techniques. I specialize in kiln- and torch-fired vitreous enamel on copper & silver. Gemstones are a passion for me, as is re-purposing metals into items for decor or dress. I value integrity. My motto - be curious and ask questions.

My first soldering experience was for a school project at age 13 - a very intricate miniature three-wheeled surrey with moving wheels, a steering rod, and twisted-wire fringe on top. My dad, Willard, was very supportive of my "playing" in the garage. He would set me up with a soldering gun, a lathe, a saw, hammer and nails, or whatever I needed. I learned at an early age, by example, that I could do anything. If I didn't quite know how, I would figure it out.

WILD GATHERINGS ~ How Wild Gatherings came about: In 1993 I was preparing to engage in my very first craft booth at the local year-round Public Market in Salem, Oregon. I was creating lists of items that I could make to sell. On one of the lists were objects I could collect in the wild such as seeds, sage, wildflower bouquets, etc. At the top of this particular list I entered the title, "Wild Gatherings". The name stuck and became all-encompassing for the many aspects of my craft. For the next ten years or so, I maintained an art & craft booth and participated in local Saturday Markets as well as art and craft shows in the Pacific Northwest and Southern-to-Northern California ~ offering a myriad of handmade creations: kaleidoscopes (copper or stained glass), obsidian needle chimes (I dug the obsidian needles myself at Davis Creek, CA), perfumes and soaps, copper olive oil lamps, geode aromatherapy diffusers, bud vases made out of old silverware, handmade cone incense [yes, I formed each cone, one at a time, by hand], beeswax & soy wax candles, and many other articrafts. My Wild Gatherings booth won the "Most Excellent Merchant's Display Of The Faire" at the 1997 Valhalla Renaissance Festival at Lake Tahoe. I was proud to be featured in local newspapers, as well.

I've been fascinated by copper and it's many uses. Back in the '80's my stepmom gifted me a small copper-enameling kiln along with some copper blanks and a few samplings of enamels. I kept it all, just in case I might want to do something with it some day.

Fast forward to 2014. I offered myself the choice to either part with my stash, or build a space where I could once again be creative with the materials that I had hoarded for so long. Thus, I built my atelier ~ complete with hot & cold running water, two skylights, a vaulted ceiling, and a crystal chandelier.

FORMAL TRAINING: I was an art major in school. For two years in the early nineties I trained with an old master Silversmith in the art of sterling silver lost wax casting and sterling fabrication. Through experimentation, detail observation, reading, successes, and many ah-hah! moments, I am primarily self taught with more than a half-century of experience.

FOR THE BLIND and/or VISUALLY IMPAIRED: For fourteen years I was a computer graphic artist, creating tactile graphics for higher education math textbooks for college students who are blind. I have read, cover to cover, dozens of calculus, algebra, physics, chemistry, and statistics textbooks, and created - on a computer - a tactile representation of every diagram in each book, complete with braille labels. The diagrams were embossed on a special braille printer and inserted into a [huge] braille rendition of the textbook. I incorporate Braille into some of my jewelry. The term "I am enough" is particularly appropriate.

I compose my work from raw, reclaimed, or recycled copper; .999 fine silver; .935 Argentium Silver; .925 Sterling Silver; sterling findings; vitreous lead-free enamel powders and frit; and various re-claimed metals and materials. Enameled pieces are either torch or kiln-fired. I love wild things like lichen, moss, rough tree bark, insects, and flowing streams. I aspire for these textural elements to be reflected in my ever-evolving Wild Gatherings. Thank you for supporting an independent artist, and for taking the time to learn what "handmade" truly means. Shop small. Support independent artists and businesses. Be kind, take care, and fare well.

My mantra - think kind thoughts, and watch your words - they become your destiny.

Maker BadgeTreasured Object

I have a very old anvil made from a section of railroad track. It belonged to my dad. He had it probably since the 1940's. He could make or fix anything, and he taught me early on by example that I, too, could do anything. The anvil sits in a place of honor on my jeweler’s bench.
