The labor intensive tufa cast jewelry method is how these gorgeousÂ
Dragonfly earrings came to be, handmade by Joel Pajarito. After cutting a tufa stone in half, smoothing out both surface sides and carving a sprue hole on top, he skillfully carved in reverse, creating a mirror image of the final design. Molten sterling silver is poured in the one of a kind cast. For pierced ears, these medium-weight adornments are about 1" long, 3/4" wide and 1/8" deep. Signed by the artist.
