These hand forged sterling silver earrings are hung on handmade sterling silver hooks.
They are inspired by an ancient bronze shield from the Late Bronze Age (c.700 BC). The original shield was found in a bog between Ballinamoona and Herbertstown, near Lough Gur, Co. Limerick, Ireland.
Made the same way as the original shield, these earrings are hand forged from flat silver sheet with the raised bosses beaten out from behind. The concentric circles are hand engraved into the front.
Shield diameter: 18 mm
Total earring length including hooks: 32 mm
