Tassel Earrings – where quality, handcrafted jewelry meets fashion.
These are statement earrings for sure, ones that will be noticed when you wear them. The tassels are made from 100% silk – yarn that I intended to knit with. But, I couldn’t stop envisioning the combination of trendy tassels with sterling silver. The yarn has a stone-washed appearance.
I cut the sterling discs from sheet metal and hammered them with a small, ball peen hammer to create the dimpled texture. Then I soldered two small rings to the back of each disc – one for the ear wire, the other for hanging the tassel. Both ear wires are handmade, too.
After construction I placed the earrings in a patina bath, which turned the silver black. Then they went into a rotary tumbler, which left the patina in the recessed areas while brightening the silver on the raised areas.
