Moon Shell
Sterling Silver and 22ct Gold Plated Stud Earrings Petite

Moon Shell collection. Petite sterling silver stud earrings with 22ct gold plating.

A moon, worn as if it had been a shell
Washed by time’s waters as they rose and fell
About the stars and broke in days and years. - W B Yeats,

These gorgeous eye-catching petite stud earrings are inspired by random shells on a north-Sligo shore.

“Often when you flip a shell over you notice how different areas of it were once shaded or coloured differently by the creature that occupied it, perhaps by differing minerals it used as it matured and moved along the coast through its life. You can see the phases of its life, and then how that has been polished and honed by sea and sand. I’ve tried to emulate that with this collection. But the collection also draws upon some of the stunning photographs beamed back to earth by the Cassini mission to Saturn which shows some of the planets moons transiting the face of the great planet.”

Contra-domed discs of silver are given a beautiful rich burnish and texture before the centre is hand plated with warm fiery 22 carat gold detail.
