‘Cascading flowers’ silver earrings

These silver earrings are both elegant and great fun! The ‘flowers’ are made by casting molten silver in water. They are then drilled and threaded on to handmade balled headpins, which are dangled from forged circles. The handmade earwires have been balled, shaped, and lightly forged for strength. They measure 9 cm (approximately 3.5 inches from the top of the earwire to the bottom of the longest dangle. The circles are 1.5 cm (nearly .75 in) across. They are lightweight and easy to wear.
