Earrings - "Island Heartbeat"

$33.00

“Mother Nature seldom gives us perfectly straight lines or flawlessly shiny surfaces. Mother Nature is best at being raw, visceral and atmospheric.”

These earrings were inspired by the best of Mother Nature’s gifts.

COMPONENTS: I applied Grand Manan patina, and aqua blue metallic paint , to the brass components of these earrings - first, I coated them with natural ingredients and left them in the open, salty air at the Island. The patina is raw, meaning there will be very slight variations in it over time, as if the metal were “alive”. I then applied paint to the bottom raw brass shapes, once the patina formed. The effect is natural and earthy.

These earrings will sway gently as you move, in a natural, sensual way.

Suspended from stainless steel, handmade earwires. You have a choice here (see last photo):

Option A - Kite Stainless Steel with plastic backs

OR

Option B - Almond Stainless Steel with closure - please select at CHECKOUT

Grand Manan is an island with a heartbeat. Those who pay close attention will heart it. It is perceptible in the quietest moments ~ along forest trails, at ocean’s edge, where deer make their home and ancient rocks hold memories of the distant past. This heartbeat beats as the seasons pass, and as Mother Nature completes its annual cycles for fauna and flora.

DIMENSIONS: Overall length (from top of earwire to lowest part of earrings) 2 1/2”, 6.2 cm (slightly shorter if you pick Option A for earwires).

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

  1. Do not submerge the earrings. Doing so will alter the patina. If the earrings get wet, dab the moisture away gently with tissue

  2. Please note that different monitors display colour in different ways - some more and some less vibrant.

FREE SHIPPING - This item will ship from either New Brunswick or Ontario.
