Square Apple Coral Tasties - Earrings

Description

These were some fun finds. Tasty looking apple coral square play upon hand shaped earwires. I flat hammered the wire for strength and effect.

Tempt the nibbles! ;-P

The wire is Argentium Sterling silver, 20 gauge.

Note: I have a few of these apple coral beads and this pic is representative. Yours may differ slightly, but they were all hand picked by me.

From Wikipedia:
"Argentium Sterling Silver is a modern sterling silver alloy which modifies the traditional sterling silver alloy (92.5% silver + 7.5% copper) by replacing some of the copper with a rare metallic element called germanium."
