Against the darkened silver above, that color really comes alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe textured silver inside the upper frames is material I make myself.

The process allows the metal itself to move and form its own texture, so every section develops differently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI built the geometric frames around pieces of that reticulated silver, leaving open areas of negative space between them. Fine silver granules in several sizes were then individually fused across the surface, spilling from the textured areas into the open spaces. The combination gives the silver an almost eroded, geological quality that feels especially fitting alongside stones that began as wood millions of years ago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opalized wood is set into separate hinged sections beneath the silver frames, allowing the earrings to articulate and move rather than hanging as one rigid piece.
