hoop earrings – bark – Argentium silver – medium

bark hoop – vertical pattern – medium

Bark design earrings.  I start with a narrow strip of silver and add bits and pieces of silver wire.  I fuse all the silver together – and hammer a bit – until a pretty piece of silver bark emerges.  Then it is time to solder on a post and shape into a perfect hoop earring.  Every earring has handmade interest – the modern concept of a Hoop with the old forest charm of Bark.

Earrings are 4.0 cm long by 0.3 cm wide.  They weigh 6.0 grams.

Argentium Silver is a high quality silver with a silver content of 935. It has the unique feature of having a small amount of Germanium added. Argentium Silver is whiter, harder and slower to tarnish. And it is always nickel-free.

I hand make all the earwires and posts with Argentium Silver, so all my earrings are nickel-free.
