A number of years ago Jo was left some vintage hair rollers. These steel components have, until now, sat waiting to find their new purpose. The steel element beautifully frames the silver wire detail, created by forming and laser-welding together fine loops of silver. Light and delicate earrings with silver studs and a suspended mother-of-pearl disc. The studs can be worn separately. Hallmarked.
Materials: Repurposed steel hair roller, silver, mother of pearl and topaz.
Dimensions: 13 x 80 mm (incl. ear wires).
