Whale Earrings

To start the new year, I decided to make a little something for everyone. Everyone seems to either like my foxes or my whales, so I made a collection with both! 

Every piece of the design was hand drawn and then cut out by hand with a jewelers saw from a sheet of silver, which was then soldered together, sanded, patinated and then polished to a shiny finish.

 Stone Properties:

-Moonstone represents inner clarity, cyclical change, and a connection to the feminine. It is a symbol of light and hope and also encourages us to embrace new beginnings. It is closely linked to themes of femininity such as fertility, balance, softness, and intuition. 

The color of the stones changes depending on which way the stones are facing the viewer and light. 

Materials:

Sterling and Fine silver

Stones in this piece: Moonstone 

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

-Keep away from harsh chemicals (such as perfumes, sprays and other cosmetics), as this can affect the metal, patina and stones.

-Avoid long term exposure to direct sunlight, as this can affect the stones color.

-Refrain from showering, swimming, hand washing with jewelry. Store in a dry area, preferably in an airtight bag, as most cardboard jewelry boxes contain sulfur, which can tarnish the metal.
