SOLD - Sterling Silver Head, the Hat is Copper and the Filters are Brass.
Starlingear's founder Ryk Maverick has custom hand textured this 4-Part Operator Bead. The head is Sterling Silver, the hat is Copper and the filters are Brass.
The Starlingear bi-metal beads are truly a labor of love. While already known for their multi-stage tumbling and finishing process, these beads are literally finished three times with a final hand applied high polish to bring out the character of the metals. Each filter and hat is precision hand soldered to the head and each one is a unique, handcrafted, piece.
Starlingear beads and jewelry are unique hand crafted works of art. They are made of the highest-quality materials and labor intensive American workmanship. Starlingear designs are the creation of artist Ryk Maverick. He designs include necklaces, rings, beads, bracelets, pendants and even the occasional motorcycle shifter knobs. Common materials used in Starlingear items are sterling silver, gold, bronze, copper, aluminum, steel and titanium. The classic polished look is most common finish but Maverick has recently been experimenting with distressed finishes and heat coloring to bring a uniqueness to his imaginative designs.
