It’s been the moon and stars for me lately. One of my favorite past times is to lay in the middle of a field on a clear night and think about what is above me. All that space and just little ole’ me. Cue the song Dust in the Wind.
I love these earrings because they are well built but are still lightweight. The stars and moons pop from the patina and the stones are so blue that it brings it all together.
The reclaiming process is a bit of a long one. Most of the sterling silver I buy is from well used jewelry that isn't being worn anymore or has been broken. I also buy used sterling silverware. I melt it all down and roll it into sheet and wire. This means that I don't have to buy freshly mined silver that is much easier to work with. Reclaimed pieces cost more because of this extra process. In the end, reclaiming metal for my wares is gratifying and worth it to me. I hope you feel the same. With love.
