A small but weighty matter..

A little while ago, I was kindly given an original 1/4 oz "Bell" plummet.
I had a little piece of 5/8" diameter copper and thought about trying to make some.
These are my first attempts at making a set on the lathe. The loops are 1/16" brass wire soldered in and the inserts are from an old wine bottle cork.
Please excuse terrible background..!

Very nice WM+ well done. However,....
Can't help thinking that they won't look half as nice when they turn green. Or will they?
