White ellipse

Description

These ellipse earrings are assembled on sterling silver wires. They have beads and other ceramic elements that were made one by one with different ceramic pastes and coloured with metallic oxides. These ceramic pieces only need to be fired once at a temperature of 1250ºC. The earrings have silver wires and thanks to their v-shape, no additional fastening is needed as the ceramic elements function as a counterweight, which ensures the earrings stay put while wearing them. The silver used is 925 silver, also known as “sterling silver” which is composed of 92.5% silver or precious metal. This means that if it were divided into 1000 parts, 925 would be pure silver and the rest would be made of another material (nickel, copper, palladium…).
