Falling Leaves I experimented making a few earrings that are very unusual. Leaf like in shape to look at, full of movement from the texture of the silver, to the waves in the actual shape of the earring. Taking a triangle of silver fold it, and passing it through a zig-zag machine to gave it the fantastic lined pattern. Partially open it up, and then manipulate each earring to create the movement. Each pair are similar but no two earrings are the same. Attach the posts, polish. Just to make them extra special I added yellow gold and rose gold plating down the middle of the earring. That’s thanks to my gold plating machine, a Christmas present from my husband from Spa Plating, I love my machine, being able to gold plate jewellery at home in such fine detail, adds something extra to my designs. #spaplating #gold-plating #silversmithing #foldedjewelry #foldedearring #jillbelldesigns https://www.instagram.com/p/CIVLAKjhZPg/?igshid=mojz0qlqnzs8
