This pair is an updated version of my original buckle earring design and I love them! As I made these, I thought of my Mom. Growing up, I distinctly remember her wearing "shoulder duster" earrings when she dressed up. I wanted to make several pairs that basically were small versions of a real belt buckle. They even have the “belt buckle finding” on the back just like a real belt buckles.
This pair is quite unique because it not only has the copper “belt” riveted around the sterling silver buckle finding but also has sterling silver rivets where the holes would be to adjust the size of your full scale belt. The sterling silver ”buckle” has some subtle chasing on each end which adds interest and contrast to the smooth of the “belt”. I love long earrings with my short hair! This pair is one of my longer pairs available so be sure you order the length you prefer! And as always, I'm happy to make a pair any requested length. So feel free to contact me with any and all questions!
These, as well as all earrings in my shop, have solid sterling silver ear wires. The earrings (with the exception of the ear wires) have an antique patina giving both the buckle and belt a worn look. It also highlights the chasing detail in the buckle!
