Sea Shells, Sea Glass & Pure Copper Summer Earrings

These are called Sea Shields and actually these 2 pieces of shell were what started me on the path of designing my new One Man’s Treasure… collection for summer.

And the way I was thinking at the time, was that it’s so ridiculous that I gets so, so, so excited over pieces of broken shell and sea glass I find on the beach as I’m walking along the shore on the beaches of Gibraltar.

Pieces of glass and shell that have been discarded by the waves after being played with for sometimes centuries. So I thought well this really needs a collection and I set off on designing the whole thing.

As you can see – these are just seemingly discarded pieces of shell but I really loved them when I first saw them. I love the way the natural grooves in the shells potentially will allow me, (potentially, because obviously at the time I didn’t know if I can execute on it) will allow me to set the metal around them.

And I’m glad to say that I was very successful and they’re beautiful. They have a nice weight to them and they juxtapose the findings of shell and glass with the metals. And the fact that they’re earrings, I’m hoping that they’re going to whisper sweet messages from the seaside, reminding you of sun and the sunny side of life.

Really hoping you like them, and if you do, as usual, you know what to do 🙂
