Lantern Earrings in silver - Cages
$135.00 USD
The Cages series melds a conceptual approach to art-making with an appreciation of natural forms to achieve a contemporary and emotional result. Each piece is a meditation upon the nature of negative space, and how the intangible can be captured with the gesture of a few lines drawn on a page, or in this instance hand-built from precious metals. The fusing process produces unpredictable results which elucidate the very nature of the materials used. Metal's active state is when it is molten. Judicious application of heat to silver causees this materials to reach for a different state of being, and in that, it feels very human.
Surprisingly light and wearable, the Lantern earrings are hand-built from sterling silver. This pair is only silver, tumbled until shiny. If you would like a silver and gold pair, there is a separate listing for that.
If we do not have a pair handy in stock, a new pair will be made exclusively for you. The images are here to give you an idea of what you will receive. Photos of your new earrings will be provided before being shipped.
