The design is very nice.  What did you use as the etchant?  the mordant?  I do detect some oxidation of the copper (blue/green color), did you use anything like renaissance wax to coat the piece?  I always am looking beyond the piece to how it was created, this is my usual response, especially when I really like the piece.

hehehehe sounds like me!

REALLY nice!  I'm a big art nouveau fan.  The one thing that really struck me, besides the very cool design, it's neatly done!
