The copper and turquoise ring cleaned

Here is the copper and turquoise ring I found last week cleaned up...It was definitely hand made by a skilled craftsman...it looks like a hammered and etched copper penny with inlaid turquoise..the soldering job underneath used high quality silver solder.

HH,
 
That sure wasn't made in some jr.hi shop class...
Wonder what matrix was used to hold the stones??
People that have artistic skills just amaze me.
 
I cleaned this one myself in a bath of cider vinegar and sea salt...does not take too long either...about 5 minutes of gentle agitation, then buffed it with a cotton rag...
