Star Fish with Pearl Drop Stud Earring
Another nautical piece! This Star Fish design is a realistic as can be. The five legs have a textured finish and their own shape and stance. One leg has a very small jump ring to allow for the drop. Tempi has used a lovely soft grey freshwater pearl, about 3/16 inch in size to coordinate well with the sterling silver metal. The starfish is 9/16 inch wide and 1 inch tall overall with the pearl drop.
Centrifugal Casting by the Lost Wax Method is an ancient art. Eileen earned a degree from The University of Kentucky in Dental Technology and became a seasoned dental ceramist and metallurgist.Dabbling in jewelry was a sideline since the tools and equipment were so similar. Dental work was fit under her microscope and confirmed in the mouth by X-ray. Eileen brings her attention to detail in fractions of millimeters!! The result is highly refined but hand-carved designs featuring her equestrian experiences and your requests.
