Impressionist Flower Stud Earrings / Solid Sterling Silver / Faceted Pyrite / Hand Forged Unique Flower Earrings

Description

Impressionist Flower Stud Earrings with Pyrite Stones – These began as a studio experiment, and now I’m a bit obsessed with them!

These were created using an unconventional technique called “water casting” where solid sterling silver is torch fired to a molten state and dropped into ice water to produce organic shapes. The shapes I got were exactly what I was going for, these sort of romantic and abstract flower shapes, like impressionist flower paintings but in very wearable sterling silver. I  carefully set rose cut pyrite stones in them, and then finished them with solid sterling silver hand forged posts and solid sterling silver butterfly clutches. They’re so unique, and really kind of a dream!

These earrings are one of a kind, you will receive the exact pair shown here.

THE DETAILS
