That's a thin piece of copper that is stamped and etched to give it that effect and used as a inlay. I use a lot of copper for inlays and about any thing else I can find.. LOL KT

Sorry to here about your health.

You do some nice lookin leather work !

So you sew through the thin copper to keep it in place, besides glueing it ??

[kid terico]

Yes the trick is to get the etched look. KT
