Abstract Textured Copper and Sterling Silver Earrings





I am crazy about the texture I achieved with these earrings - it has a brushed, matte effect that I just love. Hope I can duplicate it!

I used a piece of sterling silver sheet to craft the loop the earrings hang from, and carried it down onto the earring in a swirl design. The sterling silver is riveted to the earring, but the rivets are hidden by the curly copper "S" pieces I wire-wrapped on top of the silver.

Bali-style copper earwires complete the design.
