stone dangles - mixed metals
sand + stone is a limited collection comprised of one of a kind pieces. it is an exploration of stones I’ve collected from the liminal spaces of New England’s beaches. each piece contains an outline of a stone sawn out of silver sheet, which is textured like that of the sandy shore I found it on.
these stone earrings reflect light just as the sun speckles in pools of water. they are imperfect pairs, just as no two rocks on the shore are the same.
they measure about 9mm to 10mm wide and hang 26mm long. the top stone is made of sterling silver, as are the ear posts and nuts. the bottom stone is made of bronze. this design has only three pieces offered. each pair is slightly different.
the bronze stone shimmers as you move. your head rising and falling as you look across the sea, taking in the horizon while the tide rolls over your feet. this warm bronze stone looks like sunlit waters or rust colors stones smoothed by the ebb and flow of the salty water it came in with.
I hope this collection reminds you of peaceful days by the shore, feet sinking in the sand, with warm sun on your shoulders. picture a light breeze coming in from the ocean that makes beach grasses dance.
