The .75" (16mm) circles are hand punched and then the edges are filed and finished smooth. They are then drilled and finished with surgical stainless steel kidney wires.
The finished earrings are .75" (16mm) round and hang just about 2.25" (54mm) from your ear.
Each piece of metal comes to me having lived a previous life--in some cases multiple lives! It is not unusual for the material to sometimes have scuffs, scratches, faded portions, and general wear and tear. If a flawless finish is important to you, please zoom in to the pictures here to look for imperfections that might be distracting for you.
All adaptive reuse pieces come to you neatly displayed on an upcycled card and sustainably wrapped ready for gift-giving.
Please contact me if you have any other questions.
