Moonshine Earring | #18

Moonstone earrings as gentle as a nighttime whisper, and as soft as starshine.

These earrings feature rose cut moonstone gemstones suspended above a sterling silver star with a satellite chain tassel delicately swaying below. 

Suspended from curved French hooks. 

They measure around 3” from the top of the earwire to the bottom of the dangle.

♥ Made in my work studio using time-consuming, age-old metalsmithing techniques. This piece is made with solid craftsmanship and all parts of this piece have been hand-fabricated.

♥ All of the pieces in my collections are handmade, and make use of natural and recycled materials. All items will have slight, natural imperfections in the handiwork, as well as the gemstones. It is these variations and imperfections which denote their handcrafted nature and individual character.

♥ To create my antiqued pieces, the sterling silver is oxidize until dark gray. Oxidation is a process that happens over time naturally to sterling silver. Then the piece is brushed and polished until the highlights are lighter and the lowlights are darkened. But this oxidization is not permanent, and will fade in the areas that rub, and stay dark in the recesses. The patina will change over time, making your piece unique to you.
