Red Crescent Hoops
Red Crescent Hoops
These fun modern enamel earrings feature a zigzag line pattern with a sprinkling of red. They were made using the sgraffito technique, where the line pattern was scratched through to expose the enamel below.
The design for these earrings was sketched out and then the shapes were hand-cut out of copper. Then the first layer of dark gray enamel is applied and kiln fired. Next a layer of liquid white enamel and red powdered enamel is applied to the surface, then the lined pattern was scratched out exposing the gray enamel beneath. Then they were kiln-fired another time at a toasty 1500°. The backs are enameled in dark gray. They are completed with sterling silver ear wires.
Please note, each pair are handmade to order and thus may have slight variations from the pair in the photos.
