Textured earrings have been a focus on my bench lately. There are many ways to create a texture on precious metal. I created the leaf and vine pattern on these pentagon shaped earrings by hand hammering tiny dots in to the surface of sterling silver sheets metal. The result is a rustic inexact quality texture and pattern that has a shimmering effect.

Tiny Swarovski Crystal bicone beads with a colorful aurora borealis finish, are wire wrapped and dangle from the earring bottom. This adds an elegant, kinetic element to the engraved, rustic texture.

It’s all about handmade and one of a kind!
