These copper earrings with swirling spirals and carved Nepali quartz stones are rustic adornments with an ancient relic feeling and timeless appeal. Spirals are ancient spiritual symbols of rebirth, growth, and transformation. Spirals are present throughout Nature in growing plants, shells, whirlwinds and whirlpools, ripples in water, and the cycles of the season. Spirals are fundamental and raw. They are the galaxies we can barely glimpse.
These quartz adorned spiral earrings are really a pair of fancy ear hooks formed from a single piece of copper wire. I hand wired the spirals carefully so the design tapers from top to bottom. Each spiral took one less wrap of wire than the one above: first clockwise, then counterclockwise, then mirror images for the other ear. It takes focus and intent. And I'm not ashamed to say it took a few cycles of start-and-fail until I had it right.
Rustic and unusual, these artisan spiral earrings would make a splendid gift for your wife on your 7th wedding anniversary. Or for any occasion to remember the cool petroglyphs you found on a trip to Utah.
