These Barnacle earrings are handmade using various metalsmithing techniques. Such as forging, forming, and fabricating. They are forged to a long curved taper on each end to mimic the ebb and flow of ocean waves. Inside the spiral, a barnacle anchors in the center. The copper is then turned that classic weathered turquoise (as if in the ocean for years) using patina. These earrings offer a natural, weathered appearance. They are light-weight and comfortable.
Tide pool jewelry is a gratitude series dedicated to the ocean for her many lessons, metaphors, and beauty she offers to all of us.
