Ebony earrings
Elegant and sweeping with the sleek circle of ebony encased in silver, these earrings evoke the bold glamour of the Art Deco era. From one piece of shaped silver wire, a delicate hammered leaf descends to the centre of the dark wood.
I love the sophisticated backs of these earrings too. With only a simple silver tab securing it, the ebony disc fits tightly into the bezel, without the need for extra fittings to distract from the contrasting wood.
Rough pieces of dense coffee-coloured ebony with my saw marks visible. It's a change working with the fine texture of this wood as it's softer and easier to cut and shape than metal and can be polished to a smooth rich finish.
