Keum-boo Fine Silver and Gold Abstract Triangle Earrings
$142.00
Keum-Boo (KUM-boo) is the ancient Korean art of attaching gold foil to fine silver. The gold is 23.5 kt and is rolled to an exact thickness to bond to the .999 fine silver.
This is the technique I used to make these stunner earrings. The earrings have been antiqued to a dark black making the gold 'pop' to front and center! The precious metals are hammer textured leaving tiny dots that add even more interest to the abstract gold design. The backs of these earrings have been left black and shiny showing texture impressions from the front.
The pair hang on handmade sterling silver ear wires and measure a total of 2" long with each triangle being a generous 1 1/2" long and 3/4" wide at the bottom.
Handmade. Original. One of a kind.
