Long hand forged unique .925 sterling silver dangling chandelier drop earrings - Shiny Swings

** Unique shoulder duster earrings measure nearly 2 1/4 inches (5.7 cm) long.

** Sterling silver .925 hand formed curls

** Small sterling silver chain connectors

** Hand formed sterling silver ear wires

** I've left the sterling silver .925 in its natural shiny state. If you'd like them oxidized (darkened), just let me know when you check out.

** I make each pair when you order it, so with any handmade item, you should expect some slight variation to the picture shown.

******************

I hand form each silver swirl using pliers and wrapping it around a mandrel (a heavy steel tube made for shaping metal). After the loop-de-loop curl for the earring base has been formed, I hammer it into its final shape. Each swirled piece of silver is connected to sterling silver chain and then connected to the shiny silver ear wires. The sterling silver ear wires have been sanded and tumbled so they are comfortable in your ears. Each earring is given a final polish before I wrap them up to be sent to their new home.

These earrings have a lot of movement and reflect the light as they sway to and fro.

What is sterling silver? Sterling silver is a white, highly reflective precious metal composed of 92.5 percent pure silver and 7.5 percent other metal, usually copper. Copper provides the alloy with additional strength and hardness, that isn't otherwise the nature of pure or fine silver.
