Wild Rose Stud Earrings

musings, process, product, venuesLarkin HamiltonComment

We have a lot of wild roses on our forest floor, and Larkin has paid them wonderful homage with these stud earrings!

The petals of these blooms are hand-cut from sheet copper then shaped, rounded and textured to petal-goodness perfection. The center and post are formed from argentium silver then soldered into place.

Each bloom is about 8 mm in diameter. The copper is untreated and can be kept polished bright or left to develop a natural patina over time.

What's that you say? These would make a lovely addition to a pendant design? Stay tuned, friends... stay tuned. ;)

These and many other new designs will be making their debut this week at the Royaboya Handmade Bazaar!
