Sterling Silver and Tigers Eye 'Happy Hippy' Drop Earrings

Sterling Silver and Tigers Eye 'Happy Hippy' Drop Earrings

£65.00Price
These beautiful, bohemian style earrings were handcrafted with late summer in mind. They were inspired by the slow yet steady shortening of daylight hours that follows the summer solstice here in the UK and are meant to serve as a cheeky little nod to the vibrant and earthy colours of the early autumn months that will soon be upon us. 
 
The beautiful little Tigers Eye stones in these earrings were carefully hand-selected to ensure they each invoked images of autumnal oak, beech and birch leaves. They were chosen because they each have the most amazing gold flash when light catches their surface that reminds me of sunlight through broadleaf trees in the early October sunshine. 
 
These are a one-of-a-kind item. The earrings that are pictured in this listing are the exact pair that you will receive.

  • Item Details

    The body of the earrings are made from 1mm thick, recycled sterling silver sheet and are approx. 1.6cm wide and 0.9cm high. They have been carefully hand-textured with an old ball pein hammer and then polished to a high shine for a really unique finish that gives the earrings a shimmering appearance when light catches their surface.

    In the centre of each earring is a beautiful, 5mm round, high quality Tigers Eye cabochon stone in a fine silver bezel setting that has been polished to a high shine finish that gives the appearance of a little silver halo around each of the stones.

    The ear wires have been handmade from 0.8mm round, recycled sterling silver wire and are approximately 2.6cm long. The front of the ear wires have been very lightly textured with a repousse hammer to add a little extra movement and sparkle to the overall design.

    The total drop of these earrings from the curve at the top of the ear-wire to the bottom of the earring is approx. 3.6cm.

    These earrings are lightweight and super comfortable to wear, weighing in at approx. 1.5g per earring.

  • Caring For Your Jewellery

    Sterling silver can easily tarnish over time, especially handmade and artisan items that are typically not plated or lacquered in the way that most commercial jewellery is.

    To keep your jewellery looking great for years to come remember to remove it before exercising, swimming, bathing, showering or when completing tasks where it could get knocked or damaged.

    Do not allow your jewellery to come into contact with harsh chemicals, hand sanitisers, perfumes and lotions (It’s always best to put your jewellery on last while getting dressed). And store your item in the jewellery bag provided when it is not being worn.

    For more information on caring for your Jewellery please visit the Caring for Your Jewellery section of this website, a link can be found in the Quick Links section at the bottom of this page.
