    All things come and go in cycles.  If you find one of the books on
    valuations of collectible jewelry, you can see quite a lot of really
    good-looking, well made, not inexpensive copper jewelry from the 50's
    mostly.   I even have a set, given by an early beau.  Still love and
    wear the jewelry. 

    As for the medicinal advantages of it, I had copper bracelets
    recommended to me for arthritis, before I knew I had any, by bedouins
    in N. Africa.  Since found little assistance with the arthritis, but
    love my copper bracelets anyway.  It is truly a small, small world. 
    I have copper treasures all around the house, some very old and rare,
    some not.  All appreciated and cared for.  Mostly. 

    Ye who love copper rejoice, and ye who don't try to be broadminded. 
    It really doesn't hurt a bit. 

Pat
