JANECKA Sterling Silver Hand Forged Heart and Amethyst Earrings

Amethyst is the stone of St. Valentine and faithful love. It carries the energy of fire and passion, creativity and spirituality.

Hand forging / hand fabrication is the process of forming a design by hammering with or without heat into a desired shape. This process is the rarest type of jewelry construction. It means taking a raw piece of cold rolled or sheets of precious metals, then hand cutting, hammering, and shaping the metal into the desired design. This process makes handmade jewelry almost 50% harder than cast jewelry.
