Handmade using recycled materials, these dangle earrings were made using scavenged pine needle branches found in my backyard. Each earring is handcrafted using recycled copper metal clay and is attached to a recycled sterling silver ear wire. Earring sets come gift packaged in recycled and recyclable/ compostable/ reusable materials. . Inspired by the yearning to be closer and connected to the natural world, The Biophilia Collection is crafted from organic components found in the Maryland mountainside and hand cast in my home studio using recycled sterling silver and copper metal clay. Locally scavenged seeds, needles, leaves, fungus, branches and bark are the inspiration and forms for these whimsical pieces. I hope they allow you to feel closer to nature even when you are unable to immerse yourself in its wonders.
