These earrings have been handcrafted using traditional silversmith techniques and tools. Each earring has shaped elongated drops, patterned with circular indents and fused with 24ct gold foil using an ancient Korean gilding technique called “keum boo”.

Each earring measures approximately 2.5cm long and has been connected to a handmade silver ear wire, oxidised and polished to bring out the flashes of gold.

All of my jewellery pieces are handcrafted by me using traditional silversmith skills at my little home studio, and are generally one of a kind in their design. I sometimes use findings which are not handmade, such as the chains I use for pendants. My jewellery is otherwise fashioned from solid sheet metal (such as sterling silver, fine silver, solid brass, solid copper) and precious or solid wire (not plated) with the use of old fashioned basic techniques and tools. I use ethically sourced gemstones where possible and all of the beachcombed items I use such as sea glass, sea pottery and sea plastic are genuine, mostly found by me (unless kindly donated) and smoothed naturally by the sea predominantly off the coast of England. My pieces are hallmarked when necessary as a precious metal by the London Assay Office with my maker’s mark – I use mostly sterling silver for my handmade jewellery and these are hallmarked when they are above the weight of 7.78g.
