Handmade Silver Circle Earrings with Wild Flower and Grasses Design on Sterling Silver Hooks

A pair of handmade, round shaped, silver earrings using 100% recycled silver featuring a wildflower and grasses textured surface.

These round silver dangly earrings showcase a design taken from a drawing of the wild flowers and grasses that spring up in meadows around Sowerby, West Yorkshire.  The fields take on beautiful colours as the different species flower, attracting a huge variety of butterflies and insects. The front of the earring features the grass design, raised above a smooth flat silver surface. Both sides have slightly oxidised finish which allows the design to stand out.

The silver Esther Priestley uses is all 100% recycled silver, mainly in the form of silver clay as this allows textures and patterns to be pressed into the pieces before they are fired in a kiln. Then using traditional silver smithing techniques other parts are added. (Silver Clay has a high silver content, and can actually be hallmarked as 999 Fine Silver rather the slightly lower 925 content of Sterling Silver.)
