About this Product

Beautifully textured lead-free, pewter earrings with sterling silver ear wires. Not only do these earrings have a beautiful texture, but they have a beautiful shine to them. The length of the earring itself is 2 inches and the width is 1/2 inches. The drop on the earrings is 2 1/4''. The earrings come with a rubber ear nut to prevent loss; every item sold is gift-boxed and ready to give. These earrings are made by hand. The beauty of the lead-free pewter is that it is prolonged to tarnish. Polishing pads are great for polishing the pewter and sterling. They can be purchased on Amazon.

Pewter jewelry is inexpensive compared to its finer counterparts, it looks lovely, and it can be treated to look a lot like sterling silver in its various forms–from polished to patina’d and everything in between.

Pewter is one of the oldest manmade alloys in the world, dating as far back as the beginning of the Bronze Age. It’s been used by the ancient Egyptians, Romans, early Norse, and many other civilizations as well. It's best not to wear your pewter jewelry in the pool or the ocean as it will make it tarnish quicker.

Meet the Maker

I've always been a maker, I love creating. I started making jewelry in 2000 when I decided to take a beading class with some friends. I enjoyed it so much that I took more and more courses in my spare time away from my interior design business. The more I made the better I got and soon I had people asking to buy the jewelry I was making. One thing we do another and after about a year, I left the interior design business, created a website, and started doing art shows. I never looked back. I have been self-employed now since 2002 and I continue to do Art shows to this day. During the pandemic, I decided I wanted to learn how to do metalsmithing. So I took all of my classes on YouTube and I practiced practiced practiced. I learned about the tools and the techniques which I'm still learning. I love working for myself and creating beautiful jewelry that people love. Locally, you can find my jewelry at Old Town, Artisan, Studios, Borrego Springs Art Institute, and Cabot Museum Online find me at laurenyoungsdesigns.com
