Earring - Sterling & African Trade Beads

Silver and Blue African Trade Bead Drop Earrings

Organic and full of movement, these handmade earrings feature natural flowing slices of hand-struck sterling silver, layered with a striking blue African trade bead as the third drop element. The silver’s sculptural texture and the bead’s rich color create a beautiful balance between rugged metalwork and worldly, collected detail.

Made from scratch by an accomplished Kansas artist, each pair reflects her hands-on process. She smelts, pours, forms, and decorates the sterling silver herself, creating an authentic rough-hewn finish with the distinctive character of original handmade work. Each earring also features an ear wire individually handmade by the artist from sterling silver.

Made in Kansas, these earrings are wearable works of art with an organic, flowing silhouette and an unexpected pop of blue. Their layered design celebrates the beauty of wearing something original, thoughtfully crafted, and shaped by the hands of its maker.
