Sterling Silver Earrings

A fun casual pair of earrings.



Using Argentium Sterling Silver I hand formed the rings, added sterling silver beads and then I fused the rings closed. The earwires are handmade from Argentium sterling silver. From top to bottom these are 1 ¼ inches in length.




All Gracie Jewellery is made in my smoke and pet free studio and arrives in its own storage pouch. These earrings are now available in my shop Gracie Jewellery.


*Argentium Sterling Silver is sterling silver with less of the copper alloy. Copper is what makes sterling silver tarnish. Argentium is 92.5% pure silver with the balance a mix of germanium and copper. This makes Argentium silver harder, brighter and more highly tarnish resistant than traditional sterling silver.
