Glittery buying Black Onyx Spinel Matte Gray Lampwork Silver Earrings

buying A classy look in any setting with these elegant black and gray lampwork earrings. The lampwork beads are translucent gray dotted with black, with an etched finish. Below is a quality spinel briolette with plenty of sparkle to contrast with the matte bead above. These artisan earrings are 2" (51 mm) in length, including the ear wires. All metal is sterling or fine silver. These pretty lampwork beads were made by an artisan in Montana, and have been annealed in a kiln to enhance the structural integrity of the glass. The earrings were finished by tumbling in a rock tumbler to harden and polish the metal.

To clean, wash in warm soapy water, rinse, and pat dry with a soft cloth. For a deeper cleaning I rub ketchup gently and quickly throughout the pieces, rinse and dry. Be sure all the residue is out otherwise the acids may etch the materials.
