‘Geometric silver’ earrings

£140.00

For this exhibition, Joel Smyth created a new collection of contemporary sterling Silver jewellery, ‘Geometric Silver’, which is designed with the elegant geometric shape, the circle, as its underpinning feature. The pieces are constructed and tested in his own workshop, ensuring robust and enduring jewellery created with this precious and versatile metal. This jewellery has been kept to a minimal weight, ensuring long hours of use without undue strain on the wearer.
