These earrings are made with stones from Lake Superior and sterling silver. The silver is oxidized to get the grey color.
These stones, along with all the stones in my jewelry, have been found by my husband and myself at Lake Superior. Yes, we spend a lot of time at the beach!
The majority of these rock are basalt.
We may have drilled or cut them but otherwise they are un-altered and untreated.
They will absorb some of your oils and deepen in color and take on a beautiful sheen.
I try to find fairly thin rocks and I think you will find them to be much lighter than you would expect.
Each piece is unique
These earrings are made with Fordite cabochons I cut myself, with dark grey rocks both bezel set, on top. The earwires are sterling silver and handmade.
This sale is for this item pictured.
They measure about 1 3/4 inches from where they hang in your ear to the bottom.
What is Fordite? It is paint from a automotive factory. It builds up on the walls and equipment to the point where they have to chisel it off, so I get chuncks of it and cut it like a stone.
Please feel free to convo me if you have any questions.
