Bark Earrings – Post – Argentium Silver
These Bark post earrings reflect the LIFE design group. I layer and fuse small pieces of Argentium silver to recreate the texture of natural bark. Then I shape the form into an abstract silhouette to add movement and individuality. The posts and backs are solid Argentium silver and are nickel-free.
Because the surface is layered, light settles into the grooves and enhances depth. Meanwhile, the abstract outline softens the structure. As a result, the earrings feel organic yet expressive. Although compact in size, the texture gives them strong character.

I layer and fuse silver elements to build the bark texture. Then I refine the abstract form before soldering the posts securely and polishing the surface.
