Fuck Earring 1" Aluminium Washer and Hammered Brass Disc with sterling silver ear wires. These fun earrings are intended to be subtle. 1/16th high letters are used to hand stamp ‘FUCK’ into the 1/2" hammered brass disc. Because the large washer is aluminum the pieces are light weight.

It is my intention to be sustainable, and eco-friendly. Conscious of the origins and waste with the materials and methods I use throughout my process.
I have a route of recyclers in my region that I visit to purchase scrap roofing, electrical copper, and brass. It is typically in very rough condition when I get it. I cut it to size and then very laboriously clean, polish, and hammer it if needed.
Pieces are handmade and will vary.
