Lotus Flower ・ Dainty Silver Stud Earrings

・ Solid Recycled Sterling Silver

・ Oxidised using traditional methods

・Each lotus flower measures 7mm x 4mm at widest points.

These earrings are ethically handmade in my studio using a steel shot plate. This is an ancient fabrication technique used by metal-smiths for centuries (a similar tool was used by the Romans to forge coins)

It involves placing a solid ball of silver in a steel mould and applying force with a hammer or press so that the silver takes on the shape of the impression. I then file and carve around each of these little shapes by hand and solder them to ear posts.

This item is made to order and will be sent within one week.

Returns are accepted on this design but, returned earrings are not resold for hygiene reasons and represent a loss for me. Please purchase mindfully ❤︎
