Copper beads make wonderful jewellery, and provide a cheaper alternative to their handmade sterling silver counterparts. Most of these beads have been oxidized and buffed for an 'antiqued' finish, you can clean them with a quick buff or a light wipe with some white vinegar. To bring them back to pure non-oxidized look, soak them in white vinegar for a few minutes, then rinse and dry.
