Description

These are a lovely pair of sterling silver drop earrings that can be worn everyday or be saved for evening wear. They are a simple shape and will work with any outfit to add a little shimmer. They are handmade using recycled sterling silver and for pierced ears only. I have handmade each earring by using a technique called reticulation where the silver is heated until it starts to bubble and melt, this creates different textures and frosting on the silver that's unique to that bit of silver. They have been hand polished to a high shine so that the hammering texture catches the light. They make a great go to pair of earrings, quite minimalist with a bit of sparkle, simple and understated silver earrings. They measure roughly 4mm in width and 37mm in length and are not hallmarked so that I may keep the cost down. If you would like them hallmarked please let me know and I will send them with my next batch. There will be a wait for these (usually 1 month but I can advise when you contact me) and a cost of £10. These earrings will be placed on a little card and put into a hessian bag so that you can look after them securely at home. Silver can tarnish quite easily so try to avoid leaving them in sunlight or spraying them with perfumes, oils etc. This will ensure they keep shiny for longer. Feel free to get in touch and thank you for visiting.

A note from the seller

Hi there, I've just reopened my shop so it will gradually fill out over the coming months. I shut it for ages while I focused on learning and creating but am now ready to let you all in. Hope you enjoy looking around Georgie xx

The moon is a constant in our lives, it has that reassuring presence as it shines down on us even when we can't see it. I find the technique of reticulation captures what I imagine the moons surface to look like, not the rocky pictures but the stuff of fairy tales where it's bright and twinkly with a distressed surface that glistens in silver. whenever I create this process I think of the moon.
