These geometric enamel stud earrings feature a fun striped triangle pattern. They were made using the sgraffito technique, where the irregular pattern is scratched through the enamel, providing a lovely contrast between the enameled copper below and the black enamel.

First the irregular geometric shapes of the earrings are hand-cut out of copper sheet metal and then sterling silver posts are soldered on the backs. Next they are ready to be enameled, first with a layer of clear enamel, followed by a layer of lovely black enamel over the front. Then the striped triangle pattern is scratched out of the black enamel allowing the copper beneath to show through before kiln-firing them again to achieve the smooth finish. They are finished with tan enamel on the back sides.

DIAMETER ~ 5/6" at widest part
