These earrings are formed from the design of the snake accents on the corners of Winifred's spellbook. Paired with shimmery goldsheen obsidian, these earrings whisper old magic.
Each little snake was hand-formed from sterling silver wire. The ethereal stones are incredibly shimmery, polished goldsheen obsidian. The silver has been given a matte finish to evoke a feeling of ancient jewelry. All of the silver has been oxidized, a process which creates the blackened or antiqued appearance on silver; the raised points have been polished to shine, while the low points retain the oxidized color to show off the depth and details. The ear posts are 20g sterling silver. The total length of these earrings is 2.25" long. All metal used in the earrings is sterling silver.

A few notes on caring for sterling silver jewelry: like fine silver, sterling silver does tarnish over time. Exposure to chemicals can affect the appearance on silver (like hair dye, pool chlorine, some soaps, etc.). It is not recommended to wear sterling silver jewelry while bathing or swimming for this reason. If it tarnishes, sterling silver jewelry can be cleaned with cleaning cloths or solutions that are labeled as being safe for silver. Cleaning sterling silver can also remove oxidized patina applied to the piece, so use caution when cleaning if there is desired oxidized patina.
