To continue with the spookiness, a pair of guillotine earrings, roughly inspired by ones made in France around 1880, that reference obviously the French revolution. I’ve been making those for a few years, but they don’t seem any less relevant nowadays.

It’s made by hand, with a saw and a brass plate.

      I have an etsy page, I’m the process of reopening and refreshing it after a relatively long pause, but these are still available.

      You can find it at murmuresmetalliques.etsy.com (I hope the link isn’t against the community rules, I’ll remove it if it is)

        Excellent, thank you so much. I lost some hours this week. When I get disposable income, you’re on my list. I can’t wear pierced pieces, anymore, I intend to see if I can convert them somehow.

        Eta; I love both usernames.

          I mean, I can’t guarantee that I wouldn’t need some delays to adjust, but I’m always open to custom requests, and it would be possible to change the hook into a clamp, to make it a necklace, or whatever else.

          If you want, you can also contact me to find a more suitable price, and I can see to adjust it a little.

            Thank you so much. I’ll wait until I have full price, depending on customs and tariffs, shipping. You deserve to be paid properly for your art work. Maybe something will come through. I’m trying to sort some way of getting more hours.

              Are you in the US? If so, I haven’t set up things yet, for now I’m sending within Europe, but I’ll see how things work with delivery costs and tariffs.

              And for the cost, we can always have a middle ground, but it’s your choice, I’m just saying that I’m open for discussion.

                Thank you. I really appreciate your generosity and kindness. It touches my spirit, deep inside, in the best kind of way. There are really good people, the world over, and thank you so very much for not letting the ugliness eclipse your light. We need it.

                Yes, USA. Take your time. I’ll work on things from my end. I think we make a fine team. Wishing you happiness and wellness.

                    No I didn’t, and I didn’t see the prior comment until now unless I did and forgot! Please try again, but I’m just on a short break and will probably see it later this evening!
