About this Product
These are made with SOLID STERLING SILVER, they are not plated!
These started out as an alchemy request- but in gold.
This listing is for a pair of custom sterling silver ~ made to order~ pair of hoop earrings that resemble the tentacle arms of a squid- complete with adorable tiny suction cup things!
I loved how they came out & wanted to offer a less expensive alternative, so this listing is for a pair in sterling silver. The width of the hoops is 2mm. The diameter is just at 1 3/8" . They close with a hook and eye closure.
Please note, these earrings are made to order. The ones you see in the photos are not the ones you will be getting, yours will be almost identical, but because there is no mold- a carve these from hand in a wax matrix first, your pair will truly & uniquely be "yours".
Please allow 3-4 weeks for the fabrication of your pair.
Any questions, please ask.
Please read all shop policies before placing order!
I will be insuring all packages over $20. If yours is under $20 and would like insurance, please ask. All packages are shipped via USPS and first class, unless it is over 13 oz. Then it will ship priority. If you would like to add priority or Express mail, please contact me for shipping quote. ******Since these are made to order, which is considered personalized, we don't take returns. time is put in to each and every one of these rings to make from making a matrix in wax, to casting to hand finishing, so if we would take returns, we would lose about 6 hours in labor.

I have always had an interest in dark , Gothic, Victorian eras which you will see in many of my creations. I love to bring antiques, relics & primitives back to life by incorporating them into new pieces.
I am ONE person. I don't work in a factory. My items are NOT mass produced. Everything in my shop under 'handmade' is handmade by my own two hands- With some help from my children, finding bones, stones and other treasures.
What you will find in my shoppe are one of a kind or few of a kind items. All my gold, silver & palladium jewelry is cast by me with my big bad torch.
There is literally nothing I cannot make in terms of jewelry. I have the equipment plus over 32 years of skill to make fine gold , silver and gemstone jewelry & the imagination and moxie to make over the top costume & statement jewelry. And then at times, I decide to have the two collide. So if there is something your little heart desires, drop me a line and chances are I can make it! I'm a visionary, I already see your custom piece finished.
At any given moment, you may find me wielding a torch, a hammer, a saw, a rod of metal to melt, a paint brush, a crochet hook, or other device that I used in the process of creating.
All of the jewelry, accessories, adornments, photography & curiosities you see in my shop is handmade by me with my own 2 hands . I have been a dental technician for over 36 years and have owned a dental laboratory for 27 of those years. The processes I use to cast gold crowns is the same process I use to make sterling , gold and palladium jewelry. It is called the 'lost wax' technique. I have been dabbling in jewelry making for about 23 years for family & friends, but decided to open to the public in 2009. I also make a lot of really cooky & weird costume jewelry and love to incorporate vintage pieces into new pieces. I love also utilizing bones, feathers, teeth, and other animal parts. Please know that we obtain our animal parts from either a licensed taxidermist or by our own excursions into the nearby forest. I also delve into my own Native American heritage and make one of a kind medicine bags & other leather and antler jewelry you see here & there in the shop. If you have any questions at all regarding any of my hand made processes, please feel free to ask! My shoppe is REAL Handmade and I support REAL Handmade!

You are helping a little girl get dance lessons, a little boy get his team jersey, a mom put food on the table, a dad pay a mortgage, or a student pay for college. Our customers are our shareholders- and they are the ones we strive to make happy. Thank you for supporting small businesses!" - unknown
