The septa lines in the suture ammonite create leafy silhouettes that have been filled in through millennia with minerals like calcite and pyrite; these oak leaves will never wilt or fade, preserved forever just like the silver twigs.

The focal point of these earrings are the suture ammonite. Each one is encircled by a silver cast twig, the organic shapes preserved in metal. The backside of each earring is adorned with stamped oak leaves and marked with my maker's mark (BLJ). 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 wires are 20g sterling silver. All metal used in the earrings is sterling silver.

Each earring measures 1" long, 0.8" wide, and weighs 0.15 oz./ 5.3 g. Despite being large, these earrings are actually fairly lightweight!

This item is already made, and will be shipped 3-5 business days after the payment is processed. Shipping options will be available to choose upon check-out.

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.
