Helen Chalmers - Clear and Palladium Whisky Bottle Studs, Recycled Glass and Surgical Steel

These studs are special, instead of the usual Murano glass base, these used to be a Scottish Whisky Bottle! The bottles are broken up and the glass melted down bit by bit adding the hypoallergenic steel backs in the flame as usual. These have a slick of Palladium leaf melted onto them. Made in a torch flame and carefully annealed in a kiln overnight to prevent any breakages these earrings would be perfect to complement an outfit or as a little gift to someone. The backs are Surgical Steel, a completely safe and hypoallergenic metal. The steel backs are fused into the glass while it is still hot, so no glue is needed. As they are handmade, the size of glass varies between 4 and 6mm, but is consistent within the pairs.
