Connection Earrings with Mixed Metal and Pearls

Hand-hammered sterling silver, gold-fill, and pearl earrings. Wonderfully asymmetrical, balanced, and fun!

"As soon as I finish a piece, I put it on and see how it feels and moves. I love that jewelry is wearable art that is a visual extension of our personality. It's one of the only art forms that we take with us wherever we go."

When designing a piece, Mary arranges the components to see the interaction of positive and negative spaces. Her interests lie in imperfection, preferring scratched metal surfaces and naturally flawed stones. She seeks out stones with unexpected asymmetry to complement her silver forms.
