Rustic Chalcedony silver earrings skwiggle delightfully in hand forged sterling silver, playfully showcasing a pair of beautiful rose cut pale blue Chalcedony gemstones for sparkle and delight. The textured silver wires dance and twirl, allowing the perfectly whimsical silver segments to dance and pirouette beautifully. These asymmetrical Chalcedony Silver earrings are inspired by the playful connections in our lives. They wiggle, squiggle, and are delightfully skewed- and just plain fun to wear!

From top of ear wires, these measure approximately 4 inches in length. These are completely hand fabricated from sterling silver and they have been made in my one person shop in Atlanta GA USA.

Note from the Artist

I made these chalcedony silver earrings entirely by hand. I’m fascinated with the textures created by combining fusing, granulation, and forging. Each piece on my workbench is special, but with Spring Skwigglers I am inspired by the layers of experience that make us hardwired for connection.

Every experience we have shapes our nature, giving us the strength to achieve our wildest dreams, to overcome unexpected setbacks, and to endure life’s toughest conflicts. Overcoming obstacles and achieving long held dreams, our life is a montage of defining moments conquered and memories claimed. We see the reflection of these struggles in every person we meet. Each one of us walking the path of life, alone yet together in our shared humanity. Probably one of the most rewarding things to create is handmade texture- and the texture in Spring Skwigglers is no exception.

I always approach the creation of texture a bit like a mad scientist. The alchemy of fire, force, and metal is unpredictable and enthralling. Each hammer blow shapes the metal in a new direction. Each pass of a torch runs the risk of artistic implosion, where the metal could sink into a formless mass once more. The thrill of creation is echoed in the rush of artistic freedom with every moment, until the final texture is achieved. 

I hope you enjoy Spring Skwigglers.
