Calder inspired jewelry

Here is some jewelry that I have designed after one of my favorite artist, Alexander Calder. I am sure I have probably mentioned his name before. I have always had an a obsession with swirls, drawing them all over the front of notebooks and doodling them will chatting on the phone. I will defiantly be venturing into this more. This is just the beginning. All of these were made by shaping, forming, bending, hammering and polishing different sizes of silver wire.










These are earring jackets. You can wear them with the studs that I made or put them with any stud earrings you have...pearls or diamonds work too. I love mine with my diamond studs.
I think they would be gorgeous in yellow gold
