New Stone Earrings using leather loops

Posted by Denise Hershey on Jan 17th 2022

I always love buying matching pairs of stones that are earring sized. Last summer I came across a bunch of them and while I was waiting for my silver pieces to be processed in the kiln, I learned a new technique to suspend them from the earring wire using leather. I'm so pleased with the results. See below for some pix of them. Especially if you have longer and / or darker hair, the stone appears to be suspended in air.

Below is a sampling of them.
