Impoverished meets minimalistic.
The design of this earring is a modern peasant. I got the concept from watching a late 1800’s movie.
I added a long stick of various earthtone beads, they complement the impoverish feel of the design.
Beads are strung onto black linen cord & dangle freely from tractor inner tube scrap shapes.
Niobium ear wires, great for sensitive skin
Shoulder sweeping 4” long
Beads are small, 4mm in size
Tractor inner tube shape is .5”
Very long & thin style
Very lightweight to wear

RURAL ROOTS + SLOW STYLE ART
I’m a self-taught artist from Minnesota-you betcha!! I enjoy taking discarded materials & creating them into new means of usefulness. My choice of medium is tractor & bicycle inner tubes along with found objects of interest.
My art is a slow style jewelry & handbag atelier founded in 2008, my focus is ethically crafted in timeless silhouettes that contain boldness & driven by my passion to be uncommon. I don’t do cookie-cutter!
All my styles are 100% handmade to be minimal waste-meaning only small amounts of the inner tube are left over after cutting, sewing & assembling my work. I believe that having a propose in creating my art softens the carbon footprint we leave behind. Together we can make a conscious choice to stand for our values.
Black is my happy color!
