Enamel Gemstone Earrings in Sterling Silver  

Hand-Painted Enamel on .925 Silver With Natural Stones

Enamel work dates back to 13th-century BCE Cyprus, where artisans first discovered that powdered glass could be fused to metal through intense heat. The technique spread through Byzantine workshops and Russian Fabergé ateliers before reaching contemporary jewelry makers. Our enamel earrings continue this tradition using cloisonné and champlevé methods, where thin silver wires or carved channels contain each color field during firing. The sterling silver base provides both structure and conductivity for even heat distribution during the enameling process. We pair these colored surfaces with natural gemstones, including turquoise from American Southwest mines, amethyst, and various quartz varieties. The contrast between glossy enamel and natural stone texture gives each piece visual depth that single-material earrings lack. SilverRush Style has sourced and sold sterling silver jewelry since 2005. Our enamel collection represents the upper tier of our catalog, reflecting the labor-intensive nature of multi-fire enamel application.
