Long and airy in silhouette, they pair intricate silverwork with faceted gemstones that come alive in vivid electric blue as they catch the light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach fern begins as a drawing on a flat sheet of sterling silver. I cut the design out by hand with a jeweler's saw, then hammer, solder and shape the individual fronds to transform that flat sheet of metal into a dimensional botanical form. The small irregularities left by the process are part of the character of the work- each fern is individually drawn, cut and formed by hand tools instead of a machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuspended beneath the ferns are geometric faceted labradorites set in fine silver. Their angular diamond-like shapes and deep blue flash create a beautiful contrast with the delicate, organic lines of the silver leaves. Small hand-forged sterling details connect the elements and allow the stones to move freely below the ferns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDespite their nearly 2.75-inch length, the open construction keeps these statement earrings relatively lightweight at approximately 4 grams each.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFaceted blue-flash labradorite\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine silver gemstone settings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSolid sterling silver construction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginal hand-drawn fern designs\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIndividually hand-sawn from sterling silver sheet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-hammered, soldered and formed fern details\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-forged solid sterling silver ear wires\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHand-forged sterling silver attachments\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJust under 2.75 inches long from the top of the ear wire\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApproximately 4 grams per earring\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of a kind\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHandmade by Creation and Chaos\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbout the stone\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabradorite is a feldspar treasured for the optical phenomenon known as labradorescence. Light interacting with the stone's internal structure produces flashes of color that can appear and disappear as the viewing angle changes. These particular stones have a dark base with striking blue flash, intensified by their faceted surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStone note: Labradorite's flash changes with lighting, movement and viewing angle. At some angles these stones will appear much darker, while at others the brilliant blue becomes prominent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI pour my heart and soul into crafting these unique, artisanal jewelry pieces.
