abstract mixed metal dangle earrings with rivets | unique handcrafted sculptural jewellery by undergrowth studio

Abstract dangle earrings inspired by modernist designs, expressive in shape and movement. Handcrafted in brass and sterling silver- my favourite mixed metal combination. The rivets give this simple geometric pair an unusual sculptural character.

Great for anyone looking for unique, edgy yet elegant alternative adornment. Like most of my work they are in essence unisex and can be enjoyed by any gender. The fan like shapes have been hand cut from brass sheet previously textured by hammering. All the little holes were meticulously punched in the metal and the rivets created from sterling silver. The soldered sterling silver ring on which the earrings hang has also been carefully textured. The finished earrings were oxidized, the brass to a deep varied gold and the silver to black, and finally polished.

DETAILS:
• handmade entirely from carefully textured brass with sterling silver ear wires and rivets
• 3 grams each - middle weight, noticeable but not heavy in the ear
• 5 cm / just under 2 inches long in total
• both metals will change colour gradually with wear while maintaining an antiquated look and feel.

All pieces in Undergrowth Studio are designed by me and handcrafted in my small home studio in Skibbereen, Ireland.

Undergrowth studio is a small, one-woman owned and ran art-jewellery practice. It is based in a small town on the wild coast of Ireland. I handcraft collectible, understated pieces of jewellery full of edgy elegance. They are perfect for those who are drawn to the quiet, the weathered and the beautifully imperfect, the wild, assymetrical and irregular grace of the natural world. For those who love art and are looking for a piece of unique authentic contemporary craft to gift or treasure.
Imbued with the landscape, each piece is a world of its own. Every ring or earring is a small talisman of place, a wearable connection to the rocky shoreline where I love to walk, the corroded cliffs, the intimacy of tide pools, the sun, rain and wind.

My work carries the story of objects sculpted slowly by the elements. Driftwood, beach combed bones, stones whose fragile, weather scarred beauty speaks of impermanence and of our deep connection to the natural world. No two pieces are ever the same.

I use recycled silver and upcycle all my studio scraps. I only use eco friendly chemicals in my silver smithing work.
I am always happy to talk about my work, so, if you have any questions, please don‘t hesitate to write!
