Globemallow & Ocean Jasper earrings
These deep green ocean jasper stones spotted with yellow concentric orbs remind me of globemallows blooming. The stones have cut out back plates, allowing sunlight to pass through parts of the stone which really shows off the depth of ocean jasper. The stones are set in a hand fabricated sterling and fine silver setting. The stones hang from solid sterling silver cast globemallow seed pods. Casting the seed pods is a delicate, tedious task in itself- each is created from a real, very fragile pod from a one time mold, making each casting unique. Then each pod is meticulously matched with its most similar to create a pair. These earings hang from elegant sterling silver leverbacks. They weigh 9 grams each. Total length is 64 mm. They are signed “EKW” and marked “925” for sterling silver. These markings are hand engraved.
