Enamel Earrings – Enamel Jewellery – Drop Dangle Earrings – Red & Turquoise with Silver Hoops – Artisan Handmade outlets – Boho style

One of a kind enamel drop earrings. These will look great with both casual and dressy outfits.

The enamel components contain different shades of reds and turquoise blues in my "Coral & Ocean" colour palette. I used opaque colours layered over each other which result in unusual variations of the base colours.

To make the earrings, I file and form the copper metal base to ensure a pleasing curve. For these earrings, I added two layers of counter-enamel outlets (black) on the reverse side for strength and durability, then using a torch-firing process, I drag the heated piece through the powder enamel, achieving a coating of colour on both the back and front at the same time. This is known as 'painting with fire' and adds an organic look to the final pieces. These pieces have approximately 4 layers of colour and effect on the front and back. After enameling, I hand-make the sterling silver drop components and hoop wire and assemble.

Each combination of colours and the outcome from the kiln-firing is unique.

They are about 2 inches total length from the top of the sterling silver ear-wires to the bottom of the enameled component.

Enamel is glass fused to a base metal, so please treat these earrings as precious and handle and store carefully so they last for decades!
