Because projections of any kind are places of high current density, there will be more electrodeposition at peaks, ridges and squared edges than there will be on round edges or flat surfaces. This can serve to define the shape of the bead and create textural interest. When you are satisfied that your bead is electroformed as heavily as you want it, remove it from the bath and rinse it. The color will be a matte pink. To bring out a bright copper shine, scrub it gently with a brass brush lubricated with liquid detergent.
Electroformed copper oxidizes quickly when left in the air.
You will need to seal the surface with lacquer to prevent this. You may prefer to patina the copper with one of the solutions available through jewelry supply houses. The electroforming solution can be reused, as can the anodes. Make sure you filter the electroforming solution through two coffee filters dampened with distilled water before returning it to its original container. I hope this description of the electroforming process is clear and understandable.
