Bark Earrings – Argentium Silver
These Bark earrings reflect the LIFE design group. I layer and fuse small pieces of Argentium silver to recreate the texture of natural tree bark. Then I refine the surface so the layers shift from matte to shine. Each pair is sculpted by hand, so no two are identical. Handmade Argentium silver earwires are nickel-free.
Because the surface is layered, light settles into the grooves and enhances depth. Meanwhile, the vertical form keeps the silhouette clean and balanced. As a result, the earrings feel organic yet structured. Although available in three sizes, each version remains light and comfortable for daily wear.

The LIFE design group reflects growth and resilience. The bark texture mirrors natural rhythm. Meanwhile, the layered surface moves gently between matte and shine, adding quiet dimension.

I layer and fuse silver elements to build the bark texture. Then I refine the edges and polish the surface before assembling the earwires.
