Brass and Garnet Earrings

Measurements: 3.25" including hook x 1.10" wide Earrings by Laurel O'Brien. Textured brass earrings. The gemstone is ruby. Earwire is 14K gold filled. *Please note these are uncoated brass which means they will patina to a darker natural golden color over time �I am a professional jeweler and metal-smith. I grew up in the Finger Lakes area and returned to live in Ithaca after graduating with a BFA in Fine Art from SUNY New Paltz. Drawing, sculpture and other art mediums have always interested me and I like to incorporate these in jewelry when I can. You can see this in my hand drawn and sawn out designs. I also use surface textures and hand forming to create sculptural elements in many pieces.�
