Shell Dangle Earrings in Silver

Shells!  These earrings are made with epoxy clay, mica dust and resin.  A mold of a real shell is created, then stamped into the white clay.  Next mica dust is brushed on, in white pearlescent and iridescent.  Finally they are topped with resin, and aqua tinted resin is swirled into the top.  Little silver dangles are added for movement.  

Ear wires are hand formed from argentium sterling silver wire, which will not tarnish as easily as regular sterling.
