Snowshoe Hare Earrings. This design is inspired by the snowshoe hares that reside in the coniferous forests of the Vermont backcountry. Carefully hand-sawn hares and arches hang by a series of silver jump rings from two glowing amber stones in hand-forged settings. Sterling silver studs and ear nuts are made to hold the ethically sourced amber stones without slipping or turning. I've created a small window behind each stone to allow light to travel through them. A patina and a brushed finish highlight the curves and angles of these earrings.
Keep in mind that stone pairs are one of a kind and will vary. From stud to base they measure roughly 3.5cm in length. 2.25cm in width. This is a one-of-a-kind pair of earrings. No two pairs that I make will be exactly the same, as they are completely handmade from sterling silver sheet and wire.
