Sterling silver and black enamel earrings

Sterling silver and black enamel earrings

 A fabulous new range from young, dynamic artist:Patsy Kay Kolesar

Patsy uses a process of silk-screening to get the detailed patterns onto her pieces with enamels.  Silk screening is usually a technique used in textile work and it has taken her great patience, practice, and time to perfect in metal work.  

This lovely and unique piece is of sterling silver with a beautiful black enamel design.The clasp is of sterling silver.

 The sterling chain measures 18 inches and the piece is ~ 3/4 inch in length.

Hand made in Vancouver B.C.

Care:

 Enamel is glass fused to metal.  It is delicate yet durable.  Please take good care of it to maintain its longevity.  Store it by itself tucked in a plastic bag or jewelry bag and don’t put other metal on top of it.  Never throw it in your purse or leave it in a pile of jewelry.  The silver will tarnish, but if you keep it sealed in a plastic bag when you are not wearing it this will slow down the oxidizing process a lot.
