Full description

These eye catching earrings feature large drops of sparkly blue green bowlerite which has been smoothly bezel set in sterling silver. The earrings have been finished with sterling silver safety hooks (also known as kidney wires) to hold them securely in your ears. These statement earrings have a mismatched pair of drops one is sparkly azure blue with emerald and turquoise details whilst the other is sparkly emerald green with turquoise and azure blue details, the arcs of turquoise remind me of breaking waves. They are a larger size with a drop of 46mm from top to bottom and 19mm across but they are light weight.

Bowlerite is the name that has been given to the plastic recovered from the outside of vintage 10 pin bowling balls when they are too dented to roll down the lanes any more so these earrings are a great bit of recycling. You can see some of the other bits of rough bowlerite recovered from this particular ball in the final photo (not included in the sale), I wasn't expecting these patterns or colours to appear when I started cutting it as the outside of the ball was opaque turquoise and navy. If you like the colours but would prefer something else drop me a message and I'll see if I have any of the rough left.

Measure 46mm top of hook to bottom of drop by 19mm across and come in a sleek black cardboard gift box.
