LET THERE BE PEACE - Rustic Peace Sign Earrings, Sterling Blue Green Handmade Jewelry Gift

About:

The name of the LET THERE BE PEACE handmade peace sign earrings was inspired by an a cappella performance of “This is My Wish / Let There be Peace on Earth” by Voctave. Making a statement every time they are worn (perhaps by a woman with more than a bit of hippy in her), the one of a kind earrings were created with artisan made sterling silver peace signs that also feature sparkling blue and green Swarovski crystals. As you an see, the glowing peace signs have a wonderfully rustic look to them. Individually artisan designed, they were hand cast from sterling silver using the ancient lost wax technique, oxidized and then polished to a high shine. Some of the oxidation stayed in the recesses, adding great interest. If you look closely, you will see that the peace signs are very similar, but not exactly the same. Because of the high shine, the peace signs were extremely hard to photograph due to the mirroring of things around them. Rest assured, they are a brilliant, shiny silver. The peace signs were carefully wire wrapped with sterling silver to the upper part of the earrings design.

To represent Mother Earth, mega-sparkle faceted blue and green Swarovski crystal bicones were stacked above the peace signs. The larger crystals, a beautiful sapphire blue color, represent the oceans. Fern green crystals with an aurora borealis finish represent the Earth’s land mass. Two small sterling silver disc spacers separate the crystals and a small sterling bead sits on top. Sterling silver French hook earwires with sapphire blue Swarovski crystals for even more sparkle finish the meaningful earrings. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the LET THERE BE PEACE earrings were created for the free spirited, socially conscious woman who adores wearing one of a kind jewelry.
