Matchstick EarringsOctober 2015 Sterling silver, cubic zirconia These earrings were born out of my experimentation with closely grouped flush settings. I specifically chose square silver stock that was narrower than the stones I was setting in it, so that sparkle of the 3mm wide CZs would completely dominate the bottom portion of the earrings. They're post mounted and hang perfectly off the ears, and when the light hits them they really do have the fire of a lit match.

I've made similar capped cuff bracelets in the past
