Yellow ellipse

Description

Elipse earrings made with sterling silver as well as beads and ceramic elements that have been made individually with different ceramic pastes. To achieve these colours, metallic oxides have been added to the pastes. However, they only needed to be fired once at a temperature of 1250ºC. Due to the v-wires and the ceramic pieces that function as a counterweight, no other type of fastening is needed for a secure fit. 925 silver, also known as “sterling silver” 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…).
