Fine silver (.999FS) rosette charms balanced with faceted garnet beads. These earrings are from the Nobody's Perfect collection, off-set pairs that hang at slightly different lengths, because all faces are asymmetrical. A reminder to not take ourselves too seriously. These earrings are approximately 2.5 inches including the Argentium Silver (.960AGS) ear wires. Fun to wear, with great movement & sparkle.

The Nobody’s Perfect series began one day in my studio as I was getting frustrated with trying to make a pair of silver charms for earrings match exactly. Mostly I was taking myself way too seriously. Then it hit me…there are no rules that say two earrings must match perfectly. No one is perfect anyway. I think at that point I laughed out loud. Then I drilled a second hole into one of those charms and made the very first pair of ‘Nobody’s Perfect’ earrings. For me.
I love the organic, imperfect nature of the material I work with. Art Clay Silver works like ceramic clay, but it’s made of powdered metal, so the end result is pure fine silver. Often, I leave fingerprints on the backs of my pieces as a reminder that perfectly pristine pieces are not my goal. I want to create jewelry that honors our individuality, and embraces our imperfections.
