Quartz, sandstone and agate earrings
Quartz, sandstone and agate earrings
These materials were all collected from Devon and feature some sparkly sandstone, quartz (clear and iron which “stains” quartz orange) and a nice banded orange agate.
All stones have been naturally polished by the sea against the sand and have not been altered by me except to wrap them…
Made using a wire bezel technique I created, which is kind of a cross between basketry and weaving. It is a time consuming technique but a labour of love. Each piece of sea glass is securely and artistically encased in a delicate wire frame.
Surgical stainless steel findings. Highest quality stainless steel does not rust or tarnish, a hard wearing metal with a finish like antique sterling. Also suitable for people with metal allergies, stainless steel is used predominantly in the medical profession as people are less likely to react to it.
Size – See photo of me holding for size both in my hand and against my ear. Drop approx 40mm
