These sterling silver earrings feature two surprisingly lightweight beads resembling two plump olives. The iconic Ippolita hand-hammered finish creates a unique, one-of-a-kind piece while also capturing the luminous shine that silver is known for. Ippolita takes sterling silver a step further by dipping their pieces in 99.9% pure silver to give them that extra brightness.
*Electroform is the process of putting a mold into charged sterling silver. The silver electrically forms to the mold, before the mold is removed and details are added to the metal.
Design Number: SE1564Ippolita was founded by Florence born and raised artist Ippolita Rostagno. In 1999, after having identified a void for fine jewelry that could be worn every day, she created a line of her own. Her background in sculpture led her to create a signature language of organic silhouettes and sculpted forms. With shapes imprinted directly on her body, Rostagno has created a line of jewelry that has an unmistakable style and is known for its inherent wearability.
