Handcrafted Spessartine Garnet Earrings

These spessartine garnet earrings feature genuine raw garnet crystals in their natural dodecahedral (12-sided) form—a sacred geometry shape that amplifies the stone's grounding properties. I electroform each piece in my Santa Fe studio, a meditative process where copper is slowly deposited onto the garnet crystal and organic elements over many hours, creating an organic, nature-inspired design. The earring wires are hypoallergenic niobium, perfect for sensitive ears. The copper develops a living patina that evolves beautifully with you.

Details

  • Raw dodecahedral spessartine garnet crystals (natural color variations make each pair unique)

Care Instructions

Garnet is durable but treat these handcrafted earrings gently to avoid impacts. The copper will develop a beautiful living patina over time—polish with a soft cloth if you prefer brightness. Cleanse energetically by placing on selenite, in moonlight, or with sage smoke. Garnet absorbs and transmutes negative energy, so cleanse your spessartine garnet earrings regularly, especially if you've been in challenging situations.

About Electroforming

Electroforming is an ancient technique reimagined for modern jewelry.
Copper molecules bond to each stone over several hours, creating organic textures and secure settings. Learn more about our process.

Each crystal is electroformed in pure copper, a process that uses electricity to slowly grow metal over organic forms, stone, or wax-carved bases.
This ancient-meets-modern technique creates natural textures and one-of-a-kind variations — no two pieces will ever be the same.
All earrings are nickel-free, can be sealed for daily wear, and finished by hand in our Santa Fe studio.

For centuries, copper has been worn as a grounding element — believed to balance energy, support circulation, and keep the wearer anchored in presence. It reminds us of our connection to the earth and our ability to return to stillness.

Wearing & Comfort

The ear wires are made from hypoallergenic niobium, sterling silver or brass to ensure safe, comfortable wear for most skin types. Each earring is lightweight enough for daily use yet strong enough to withstand regular movement. Avoid tugging or sleeping in your earrings to preserve their form.

Most ear wires can be interchangable, message me if you need a different option.

Materials & Metals

Each pair begins in raw metal — shaped by hand, flame, and patience. Every element carries its own spirit and weight:

Copper — The metal of grounding and renewal. Warm to the skin, it patinas with time, deepening in tone as it absorbs the rhythm of your days.
Brass — The alloy of courage and clarity. Golden in hue, it evokes sunlight and strength — a vibrant, bright energy made to catch the eye.
Bronze — The metal of endurance and memory. Rich, aged, and steady, it holds the story of fire — an ancient warmth that honors both strength and stillness.
Silver — The mirror metal. Cool, luminous, reflective — it carries the energy of the moon, balancing intuition with calm precision.

Each metal is chosen intentionally, allowing you to wear what resonates with your energy and practice.

Care & Patina

Remove before showering or swimming. Use a soft cloth; avoid abrasive polishing on patinated copper.

Copper Protection

Embrace the Patina

Some collectors love the rich, aged look that copper develops over time. This natural patina tells a story—of adventures taken, energies absorbed, and the passage of time. If you resonate with that earthy, vintage look, feel free to let your copper evolve organically.

Why add lacquer?

  • Slows the natural darkening (patina) of copper
  • Minimizes the chance of skin reactions
  • Keeps copper looking brighter for longer
  • Protects while preserving the earthy character of your jewelry

Details:

  • Optional upgrade available for $5
  • Applied directly to your copper ring, necklace, earrings, cuff, or bracelet before shipping
  • Clear finish — no change to the look or feel of your piece

Lead Times, Shipping, & Returns

Each pair is forged and finished by hand in Santa Fe and ships within 2 - 3 business days. All orders arrive wrapped in eco-conscious packaging, ready for gifting or personal ritual. Unworn earrings may be exchanged within 30 days.
