Framed Pearl Earrings – Oxidised Silver & Freshwater Pearl Dangles
Long oxidised sterling silver drop earrings with a vintage freshwater pearl nestled inside a handmade scalloped frame. The deep blackened silver makes the pearl's natural lustre glow — classic and contemporary at the same time.
Each pearl has been carefully rescued and restored from one of my grandmother's old strands. I've lovingly breathed new life into them — setting each one by hand into its own little frame, wire-wrapped and suspended on a long straight bar. I think Gran would approve.
A long straight bar drops from a sterling silver ear hook, with the framed pearl suspended at the base via a delicate wire wrap. The oxidised finish is sealed for durability.
Made to order — limited edition while grandmother's pearls last.
Details:
- Total length: approximately 75mm
- Frame: approximately 12mm
- Handmade on Waiheke Island, New Zealand
This is a limited edition range and is made to order — please allow two weeks for me to make your pair before it ships.
