Citrine Earrings – Argentium Silver V Bail
Hand-hammered Argentium silver formed into a clean V-shaped bail. This is the longer proportion of my citrine V design. I shape and solder each section by hand. Then I refine the surface to keep the lines crisp and structured.
A faceted citrine teardrop hangs below the V form. The warm golden tone contrasts with the bright white silver. As a result, the earrings feel bold and architectural. Handmade, nickel-free earwires complete the design and allow natural movement.
The V directs the eye downward. Meanwhile, the faceting adds light and clarity. If you’d like to explore similar forming and texturing techniques, visit my

I hammer and form the V bail from solid silver. Then I secure the citrine drop and polish the surface to achieve clean contrast.
