About this Product
A visitor to my booth at an artisan market suggested I make some small wire weave earrings. I understand that not everyone wants statement earrings! She inspired me to come up with these small spiral wire weave earrings. They are made of silver and oxidized for an antique look. The earwires are niobium, which is hypoallergenic.
The earrings are about 1 1/2 inch (3.5 cm) long from the top of the ear wire to the drop. They have a non-tarnish coating to protect the finish. If you avoid getting it wet, the coating will last longer. If it wears off over time, you can use the polishing cloth I included in the box.
If something happens to your earrings. please feel free to contact me via GoImagine or by sending an email to cobaltdragonflyart@gmail.com. If you return the item to me (at your cost) I will do my best to repair and return it to you at no additional cost to you.

Meet the Maker
I got in trouble for doodling mandalas at school, even though I didn’t know the word “mandala” at the time. I love to create art and jewelry, sometimes drawing on spiritual traditions such as the paganism of my ancestors in Lithuania.
I’ve never met a craft I didn’t like, but wire weaving jewelry is my favorite. I am fascinated by different stones, their colors, patterns, their shimmer or flash, and their symbolism. When I start working with a stone, I visualize and sketch the style of setting that feels right. Then I have fun figuring out how to connect all the elements. The actual process of weaving is both meditative and deeply satisfying.
It is always my hope that after a piece comes together, the wearer will feel some of the joy I felt in the creative process.
