THE DETAILS
-I named these the “Mini Gong” earrings because the shape and contrast make me think of tiny hammered silver gongs with silver mallets.
-Disks are 20 gauge solid sterling silver about 9mm diameter (3/8″) , hammer textured and formed into concave shapes with nice subtle texture which cup the silver beads and catch light.
-A gorgeous little hand carved fine silver 2.5mm hexagonal bead dangles at the center of each disk from a fire torched sterling silver headpin. Headpin is left dark from fire torching to add contrast and visual interest.
-Total earring length from top of hook to bottom of design is 18mm (just under 3/4″). Drop length from connecting point at bottom of hook to bottom of dangle is 9mm (3/8″).
-Earring hooks are small solid sterling silver ball end ear wires.

ABOUT FINE SILVER
My fine silver beads and components are made completely by hand in the remote mountain area of Northern Thailand by the Karen Hill Tribe. Known and respected for their skill and expert craftsmanship in silver smithing, and using centuries old techniques, these artisans create pieces of a distinctive style unique to them. Karen Hill Tribe silver pieces are made of a higher purity than 92.5% sterling silver. Because the actual range is 95-99% purity, these pieces are softer, have a whiter color and will not tarnish as readily as sterling silver. Beads may have a visible seam. Sizes and shapes may vary slightly with these handcrafted items. All of my Hill Tribe fine silver is purchased directly from the source using ethical and fair trade practices.
