About this Product
This is a pair of .950 sterling silver scarab and Egyptian deity Set-inspired rustic mismatch dangle earrings with .950 sterling silver shepherd's hook ear wires. These earring pendants consist of a depiction of a scarab beetle rolling a sun on one, and an Egyptian deity Set-inspired design on the other. These earring pendants are finished with a patina, meaning they have undergone a process of oxidation.

Meet the Maker
Greetings!
Ravens' Hollow Handcrafted Jewelry emerged in 2021 as the materialization of a binding of communion with nature to synthesis of lived experiences: Movin' out to the country helped me figure out where I'd been, where I'm at, and where I wanna get to!
With a heart for symbolism and the ancient, I utilize the teachings of my metal clay journey, set in motion in 2016, to inform my interpretation of wearable paired with Intention and the wisdom in the musings of our global ancestors.
My pieces are comprised of silver metal clay, which is a mixture of metal particles, organic material, and water that is molded and worked like a clay. It is then refined in the greenware, or dry, stage; and fired in a kiln. The result is either .999 fine or .950 sterling silver, depending on which clay I used. Then the piece goes through an extensive polishing process in order to achieve the desired look; and I usually finish it off with a patina, and then more polishing. The components that I add to my metal clay pieces are always .950 or .925 sterling silver.
Because most of my pieces are intentionally oxidized, the coloration and variation of the oxidation can change over time, through unintentional oxidation. I recommend keeping your pieces away from chemicals and soaps, and preserving their brilliance with the polishing pad included with your piece.
May the best in me bring out the best in you!
My gratitude for stopping by,
Kris
How it’s Made
These earrings are comprised of .950 sterling silver metal clay, which is a mixture of metal particles, organic material, and water. They were rolled over a texture, then each one perforated. Then they were then refined in the greenware, or dry, stage. Then they were fired in a kiln. These pieces went through an extensive polishing process in order to achieve this look; and I finished them off with an oxidizing patina, then polished them more. Lastly, I added these pieces to .950 sterling silver shepherd's hook ear wires.
Because these pieces were intentionally oxidized, the coloration and variation of their oxidation can change over time, through unintentional oxidation. I recommend keeping these pieces away from chemicals and soaps, and preserving their brilliance with the polishing pad included with your order.
