Full description

These dangly surfite earrings feature striped Cornish surfite which has been smoothly bezel set in sterling silver and finished off with sterling silver hooks. The surfite has vertical stripes in shades of blue (the thickest is navy) and clear with thin stripes of green and purple running up the center. The settings have an open back so light can shine through the surfite if you have short hair or wear it in an up do, this changes the appearance of the surfite as the colours of the translucent bands show up more. These dangly earrings measure 56mm (from top of the hook) by 16mm but surfite is lightweight compared to traditional stones so they are not heavy in the ears. Comes gift boxed.

Surfite is a build up of cured resin that forms during surfboard manufacture making these earrings a great gift for a surfer. I cut this particular material myself and you can see the original block and a work in progress shot in the photos (the rough isn't included), the rough material came from Toy Factory Surfboards in Newquay, Cornwall. One of the cabochons had a flaw in the surfite which I had to remove during polishing (flaws like bubbles are fairly common as this is a waste material) so there is now a slight dimple on one edge where the setting hugs cabochon (in the main photo it is on the right hand side of the earring on the left).

Love the idea of surfite but want something different then drop me a message - I've got plenty of the rough left!
