    Silver Pelt Earrings - Large

    Michaela Pegum

    "Pelt is a substance I created as a way of exploring textural and sensorial processes of becoming in material. Copper and silver are slowly grown into the moss-like plushness of velvet through electroforming. The word 'pelt' incorporates references to the gravity of a warm animal body or a sun-drenched blanket of moss, but also in more general terms, something growing, fertile and alive."

    Sterling silver, velvet, copper and 9ct rose gold
    60mm(incl. hook length) x 32mm x 7mm approx.
