Disc Hoops - Sterling in 3 sizes

These Hoops are made from a Disc pattern with heavy granules and ingot slices and have a hoop catch with a satisfying snap and come in three sizes: Large - 4mm wide and 1.25” in diameter Medium - 4mm wide and .75” in diameter Small - 4mm wide and .5” in diameter I made the original band in Fine silver using the process of Granulation. I then made a mold of that polished granulated original, pulled some wax copies of it, then cast them using the lost wax process, and added a snap catch to the hoops! Granulation is an ancient fusing process utilized for thousands of years by the Etruscans and Mycenaeans as well as other cultures around the globe. I alloy 24k gold down to 18k gold or use Fine Silver and create tiny granules and sort them by size. Then I place these granules with a 000 paint brush and then carefully heat the piece using a mouth torch to the point of fusing. Each sphere is connected by a tangent of metal creating a sleek and beautiful surface, in this case, a pattern made of slices from an ingot and several sizes of my granules. I then make a mold and cut it for use, inject it with wax and use that wax copy to cast your earrings! Sterling Silver MADE TO ORDER so each pair is a little different. Ready to ship in 3-10 days, depending on my current schedule and metal inventory.
