ruby zoasite and silver dangle earrings, rustic oxidized earrings, metalwork and stone earrings

Elegant little earrings combine rustic faceted ruby zoasite stones with oxidized silver.


I torch fused rings from fine silver wire, hammer textured them soundly, and wire wrapped the dark ruby-red stones to them.
All hang from my own cold forged sterling French-style ear wires, hammered gently for strength and shape retention.

Metal components - both fine and sterling silver - have been oxidized and hand polished to a rich 'aged' patina. The faceted pyrite adds a wonderful flash and sparkle!

Total length from top of ear wire:  1 3/8 inches, or 3.5cm.

Your earrings will arrive artfully presented.
Thanks for browsing!
