Textured geometric earrings, made from a recycled clock.
The back story...
Clock 7. Originally an Easel clock fully hallmarked in Birmingham 1929, by silversmiths Sheldon Brothers (Charles Thomas & William Samuel Sheldon) of 6 Vyse Street. Known for producing fine silverware and watch cases, the company was part of Birmingham’s rich tradition of silversmithing. When I salvaged it, it was with a one-handed broken Swiss 8-day movement.
The Guilloché pattern was made with a Straight-line Engine lathe.
