Around and Around

Forged wrapped vine earrings.

I absolutely love the wrought iron look of these.

I forged the wrapping wire really flat and soldered it to the hoops,
then wound it round fairly randomly, listening to the Rolling stones
in my workshop....Around and Around....

Deep red copper patina czech beads, and recycled turquoise glass beads hang
in the centre of oval hoops on big roomy earwires.

I've left the heat patina on the sterling silver, as it's a delicate
oxidisation, (rather than a chemical oxidisation), and
then tumble polished them for hours for a deep shine.
