Small Relique Earrings - designed and handmade by L.Greenwalt Jewelry. 
 
Hand sculpted in wax and cast in metal via the lost wax casting method. All of our jewelry is handmade from start to finish in our Portland, Oregon studio. 
 
Available in yellow bronze or 925 sterling silver with surgical steel posts and 14K gold-fill (for bronze) or sterling silver pushbacks. 
 
Sizes available (U.S) 
 
The Relique earrings are part of our Relique line. Inspired by Tudor and renaissance art. These earrings in particular are inspired by the French Hood, a head garment worn by nobility and royalty during the Tudor times. 
 
Metal Care: 
 
Bronze can be cleaned with a polishing cloth (included with purchase) as well as bar keepers friend, or a paste of baking soda and lemon juice, applied with a soft bristle tooth brush. 
 
Recycled Metal (bronze and sterling silver): 
 
We save our 925 sterling silver scrap metal and use it for all of our sterling silver cast styles. 
What do you mean scrap metal? That's what's left after we're done making a piece of jewelry. Usually it consists of excess wire ends. :) 
The same can be applied to our bronze scrap metal for our bronze cast jewelry. 
 
Skin: 
 
*Please note that bronze can sometimes leave a faint green mark after being worn. This isn't true for everyone, but if you do encounter this, do not be alarmed. It's simply the copper content of the bronze alloy reacting with the acids of your skin. If this does happen, simply wash your hands with soap and water after wear. 
 
Other styles shown are complimentary styles. 
 
All high shine cast styles come with a polishing cloth and instructions for care.
