{"product_id":"slide-earrings-silver","title":"Slide Earrings - Silver","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe sculptural Slide Earrings explore spiraling shells and lily spathe forms, inspired by Isamu Noguchi's 1986 sculpture Slide Mantra. Noguchi's lyrical work functions as a slide, with steps winding up the back that descend into a graceful spiral. The earrings carry that gesture into wearable scale, the exterior holding a subtle texture while the edges are polished to a high-polished finish. When the earrings move, light dances between the contrasting textures, each pair unique and sure to get noticed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCast in sterling silver using the lost-wax method, each earring begins as a wax model hand-carved at the bench. The recessed areas feature a striking dark patina that varies from blue-grey to black. The earrings hang from sterling silver ear wires, allowing them to swing freely as the head moves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e· Material: Sterling silver with dark patina on the interior; sterling silver ear wires\u003cbr\u003e· Dimensions: 1 ½\" long × ½\" wide\u003cbr\u003e· Lead Time: Made to order in our San Francisco studio\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFAQ\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat is the Slide Series?\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA series inspired by Isamu Noguchi's 1986 sculpture Slide Mantra, a lyrical work that functions as an actual playground slide.
