Copper Gold Beaver Dust Pigment is a warm copper-gold mica powder designed for epoxy resin, resin art, woodworking projects, candles, soap making, and craft applications. This pigment creates a rich metallic shimmer that sits between copper and gold, making it a strong choice for projects where you want warmth, depth, movement, and a pearlescent mica effect.
Use Copper Gold in epoxy pours, river tables, resin inlays, coasters, trays, charcuterie boards, decorative art, rustic woodworking projects, luxury-style resin pieces, and handmade gifts. It can be used on its own for a copper-gold shimmer or blended with other Beaver Dust Pigments to create custom bronze, antique gold, rose gold, copper-orange, warm brown, or metallic-style effects.

Why Copper Gold Is a Useful Pigment Colour
Copper Gold is a useful mica powder colour when you want a warm metallic pigment that feels richer than standard gold and brighter than bronze brown. It can work well in rustic epoxy projects, river tables, decorative trays, coasters, black-and-metallic resin art, and woodworking projects where you want a warm shimmer that pairs naturally with wood grain.
This colour works well in clear epoxy, tinted resin, black and copper-gold colour palettes, bronze and brown blends, warm gold accents, darker backgrounds, white pearl blends, and natural wood projects. Testing a small sample first is the best way to see how the Copper Gold tone, shimmer, and transparency will look in your exact resin, wax, soap base, coating, or craft material.
Why Beaver Dust Pigments Are Different
Beaver Dust Pigments are made with fine particles under 60 microns. This smaller particle size helps the pigment mix smoothly into epoxy and stay suspended while the resin cures, instead of settling to the bottom like some larger or heavier pigment particles can.
Copper Gold is especially useful when you want shimmer, movement, and a warm metallic-style colour in cured resin. Use a small amount for a more transparent copper-gold shimmer or add more pigment for a stronger, more saturated metallic effect.
Suggested Projects
- Copper-gold epoxy pours: Use Copper Gold on its own for warm metallic resin projects with a pearlescent mica shimmer.
- Rustic river tables: Pair Copper Gold with black, brown, clear, bronze, satin coffee, or gun metal grey pigments for warm epoxy river effects.
- Epoxy inlays and void fills: Add copper-gold shimmer to cracks, voids, rivers, logos, and decorative woodworking accents.
- Luxury-style resin art: Use with black, white, bronze, brown, deep blue, or dark grey pigments for rich decorative resin effects.
- Charcuterie boards and serving pieces: Use Copper Gold for warm metallic epoxy accents in boards, trays, and handmade gift projects.
- Custom pigment blends: Mix with bronze, shiny gold, light gold, black, white, brown, orange, or red tones to create custom rose gold, antique gold, copper-bronze, and warm metallic-style effects.
How Much Pigment Should You Use?
A good starting point for Copper Gold mica powder is approximately 1/8 teaspoon per 1 litre of epoxy for a medium level of transparency. You can adjust from there depending on the colour strength, opacity, shimmer, and final effect you want.
For smaller batches, start with a small amount, mix thoroughly, and add more gradually. Mica powder can look different depending on lighting, background colour, epoxy depth, and the amount used, so testing a sample is recommended before committing to a larger project.
