That is likely because what you wore before was not solid copper.

The vast majority of copper jewelry sold online consists only of a thin layer of copper over a base metal – which means hardly any real copper comes into contact with your skin.

Each of our pieces is made of 99.9% pure copper, through and through. No plating, no base metal, no coatings. The difference between solid copper and copper-plated jewelry on the skin is significant, and most people notice it.

The second factor is consistency – copper works with daily wear, not with occasional wear. Wear it every day for a month before you decide

Every piece that Livia designs is created with care and attention to detail.

Livia personally selects the best materials and oversees every step in her workshop.

Her goal is jewelry that is not only beautiful, but also lasts for many years.

We get this question all the time. This is what we know:

Copper is an essential trace element that the human body needs, and wearing it on the skin is a practice that has existed for thousands of years – long before modern medicine.

We have never promised anyone anything. What we can say is: Customers who discover our copper at 45, 50, 55 years old keep coming back – season after season, year after year – without us having to explain why.

Whether it's a placebo or not: whoever wears our copper feels something they want to keep feeling. We don't need to know more than that.

Formal clinical trials have yielded mixed results, and we do not pretend otherwise.

What we can say: Copper has been worn on human skin for over 3,000 years, in virtually every civilization on Earth. Roman soldiers. Ayurvedic healers. Indigenous artisans of North America. Generations of women who inherited it from their mothers, who in turn inherited it from theirs.

They did not conduct clinical trials. They wore what their grandmothers wore.

Our customers are not scientists either – they are simply people who have already tried everything else.

Yes, of course.

Pure copper is naturally resilient – it has been worn for centuries by fishermen, farmers, and workers in all kinds of weather and in the water.

Nevertheless, there are a few things you should know:

• Saltwater and chlorine accelerate the formation of patina – your piece of jewelry will darken faster and age more quickly than it would if worn in dry conditions.

• This is not damage. It is simply the natural reaction of copper to its environment, as with any real metal.

• Prolonged or repeated contact with chlorinated pool water can affect the surface over time.

If you would like to maintain the original shine, rinse the piece of jewelry with clear water after swimming and then dry it. If not – just keep wearing it. It is made to be worn, not to sit in a drawer.

Copper is a base metal, that is true.

What you are paying for is genuine craftsmanship, 100% pure material, and the fact that this is a limited collection.

We have turned down requests from companies that wanted to mass-produce our designs because we do not put our name on something that is not made with our own hands.

Every piece in this shop was shaped, engraved, and finished by hand. Once they are sold out, there will be no more.

You can get a copper-plated bracelet anywhere for a few francs. This is something different.

We want you to order with peace of mind and confidence.

If you receive your order and would like to request a return, our team will personally review your case and guide you through the next steps in accordance with our return policy.

We handle every request seriously, quickly, and respectfully to offer you the best possible solution: an exchange, a refund, or personalized support, depending on what is appropriate.

At Livia Kupfer, your trust does not end with your purchase.
