Hammered Copper Paddle Earrings with Multicolor Tourmaline | Hand Wrapped Gemstone Earrings

Hand-hammered copper paddles are wrapped with natural multicolor tourmaline in these small statement earrings, combining warm metal, raw gemstone color and the irregular texture of handmade adornment.

Each copper paddle is individually cut, shaped and hammered before being wrapped by hand with an assortment of natural tourmaline stones. Smoky black, green, blue-green, yellow and pink stones climb across the copper surface, accented by small faceted black gemstones and layers of fine copper wire.

The stones have been intentionally left irregular rather than perfectly matched, allowing the natural variations in tourmaline to become part of the design. Hammer marks remain visible beneath the wrapping, giving the earrings a layered, almost excavated quality while the bright mineral colors keep the pair from feeling heavy.

Finished with handmade hammered copper ear hooks, each pair carries the small variations and tool marks characteristic of individually made jewelry.
