Blue Zircon Earrings – Argentium Silver Chandelier – Antique
Blue zircon teardrop accents hang from a flowing chandelier frame. The design follows the WATER collection with open movement and layered form. I shape and solder each section in solid Argentium silver. Then I refine the structure before applying the antique finish.
The blackened tone is permanent. It adds contrast and depth against the bright blue zircon. As a result, the stones catch the light while the frame remains bold and sculptural. Handmade, nickel-free earwires complete the design.
These earrings are long yet balanced. They move freely and reflect light with every step. If you’d like to explore similar forming and texturing techniques, visit my

Materials & Care
Made with Argentium 940 silver — purer than sterling, tarnish-resistant, and nickel-free.
Argentium 940 has a bright white tone, strong structure, and slower tarnish than traditional sterling. It is nickel-free and holds fine detail well. The antique finish is permanent and does not need polishing. A soft cloth is enough for care.

Each section is formed and soldered by hand. After assembly, I refine the surface to deepen the antique contrast and highlight the blue zircon.
