Abstract ceramic earrings

Free-form abstract ceramic earrings made from terracotta clay with an inky colour wash (a blend of cobalt and iron oxide)
Fired to earthenware temperature, lightly scrubbed for a smoother surface and
coated with beeswax polish
The finish is a soft, matte, charcoal look and feel - reminiscent of the iconic Grass Tree trunks of Western Australia

Care for your earrings
—————-----------
Ceramic is a robust material when handled appropriately but will shatter if dropped from a height so care in putting on and taking off is highly recommended! Standing on a rug or leaning over a bench (say in the bathroom) while putting the earrings on is a good preventive to breakage.
