Silver Forged Heart Earrings

Description

“This handcrafted jewelry comes to you from the Western North Carolina mountain studio of Barbara Joiner in Brasstown.  Working with silver and sometimes a touch of gold, allows me to pattern and texture these pieces.  Whether hammering silver wire to create graceful transitions from plane to plane and a play of light and sparkle on the surface, or printing and stamping textures and patterns found in nature, I am always interested in making my work playful and fun to wear.”
