Description
Dyed and shaped anodised aluminium drop earrings with sterling silver ear wires.
The lower disc is dyed lemongrass yellow, then lace placed on top of part of it and pressed through my rolling mill, leaving a gorgeous texture on the front side. The smaller upper disc is also lemongrass with a grassy dark blue print. They are finished with sterling silver ear wires.
All Ruby and Jack jewellery and sculpture is hand made by me from my workshop in Wiltshire. I make each item individually therefore there may be a slight variation in colour, print and size.
They measure 50 mm in length (dropping from the ear) and 25 mm in width, are lightweight, stylish and easy to wear and come in a Kraft gift box with a velvet insert.
Some information about anodised aluminium
Anosiding uses acid to create a corrosive and wear resistant layer on top of the metal. The anodic layer is left unsealed allowing the material to be dyed. The dyeing and patterning are my favourite part of the process as there are endless possibilities for colour, pattern, print and texture. This make anodised aluminum a hard wearing and lightweight material for jewellery making and sculpture.
