minus-squareHackworth@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up23·2 days agoI’m confused by the matte out. Is it to anonymize the ring? Something written on it, maybe?
minus-squareNot a newt@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up47·2 days agoIt was not copper. Look at the spacing on the text around the word.
minus-squareHackworth@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up21·edit-22 days agoI’m embarrassed I skimmed right over that on a first glance. Looks like the original was hematite. I’m going to pretend I was making a bad LotR joke.
minus-squareyngmnwntr@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up28·2 days agoIn the original picture the ring isn’t copper. The word copper is also edited. It was changed to copper for the Ea Nasir joke.
minus-squareMk23simp@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 days agoThe word “Copper” is clearly edited in as well, so it’s probably covering a ring made by a different material.
minus-squaretiredofsametab@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 day agoMaybe hematite? I seem to remember saying that about hematite when I was young and the whole neopagan and new age stuff had a moment.
minus-squarehansolo@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·2 days agoThe whole “copper absorbs impurities” thing is a long-lasting trope. Copper is very soft and doesn’t break like this. Certainly not a ring in half. The matte out is MS Paint to connect 2 probably unrelated images.
minus-squareHackworth@piefed.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·edit-22 days agoAh, I’d never heard that. Found the image and it appears to have originally been hematite.
minus-squarehansolo@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·2 days agoYeah, brittleness of a stone makes sense for a break like that.
