gemstone earrings – sun – Argentium silver
These earrings feature the tiniest hammered suns – decorated with natural gemstone teardrops.
Handmade with solid Argentium silver. I form and fuse the tiny sun. Then I hand hammer the sparkling texture. Lots of polishing, then I can add the gemstones. Finished with a hand made Argentium silver ear wire – and they are ready to wear.
Earrings are 2.8 cm long (just over 1 inch) by0.8 cm wide (5/16 of an inch)
They weigh 1.3 grams – so very light and easy to wear.
the little suns are in our SKY design group:
SKY *I Desire * CELESTIAL SPIRALS & SPACE – Carefree – Mysterious – Adventurous – Receptive
Argentium Silver is a high quality silver with a silver content of 94% (Sterling is 92.5%). It has the unique feature of having a small amount of Germanium added. Argentium Silver is whiter, harder and slower to tarnish. And it is always nickel-free.
I hand make all the earwires and posts with Argentium Silver, so all my earrings are nickel-free.
