World War II Era Mason Jar Square Earrings
These unusual earrings have been artistically designed from the broken remains of a World War II Era Mason Jar!
Remember those old blue canning jars from your grandmother’s house? In an effort to help the environment and protect the wildlife, this artist reclaimed the broken pieces from an old glass dump to create these striking earrings.
After being hand cut and carefully smoothed, each piece is drilled and hung on a 1/2″ sterling silver hoop and french ear wires. Due to the nature of antique glass and each piece being hand worked, there will be differences in waves, bubbles, and hues. Each piece comes with “The Story of the Glass” detailing the history of your piece of glass making each a true conversation piece!
The glass measures 1/2″ square and hangs from a 1/2″ sterling hoop and sterling french ear wires. Total hang length is approx 1 1/4″.
