Description
These earrings are lightweight and a great accessory to add to your everyday. A hammered stick of silver is adorned by a drop of sparkling amethyst. You will love these for their ease of style and spark of color.
To make this piece I cut a piece of silver wire and using my favorite hammer add the texture to each piece. I drill the holes for the earwire and the gemstone and then polish them. Once they are all polished and sparkling, I then attach the gemstone and earwire, making them all ready to wear.
DETAILS:
- Size: 34.3mm from top of earwire to bottom of earring.
- Metals: Argentium Silver
- Earwires: Sterling Silver
- Gemstone: Amethyst
This piece is made with a precious metal called Argentium silver. This unique silver alloy is marked .935 (regular sterling is only .925) This means it contains more fine silver than sterling but also has better strength and durability than fine silver. The really special thing about this alloy of silver is that it is much more resistant to tarnish than sterling silver and is made from all recycled or ethically obtained sources.
- Because of the custom nature of my pieces they are made to order and may look slightly different from the photo. Each piece is hand crafted just for you and this creates a slightly unique piece each time.
- All of my work is made with my own two hands in my Salt Lake home studio. I use traditional and modern metalsmithing techniques to make my work. This means what you find here is completely unique.
