Simple handmade silver line long stud earring (E0164)

These long stud earrings are made of 4 cm long and 1mm thick square profile silver wire, while the back posts and ear nuts are solid sterling silver. The surface is hand-scratched with the so-called "cat-fur" etching technique, typical to Thai Karen hill-tribe silversmiths. They are simple and can go with literally anything and any style you wear. Our products are hand crafted in 98% Silver by Thai Karen hill-tribe artisans. The Karen are a group of ethnic peoples who reside primarily in southern and southeastern Burma and in northern and north-eastern Thailand. Thai and Burmese hill tribes can be traced back to the 12th century when they are said to have originated from Tibet. With a higher silver content than sterling silver, Karen silver has a weight, bright satin color and feel, all of its own. Every piece is handmade and individual. The product comes with traditional Thai packaging and includes tracking number for safer shipping.
