Uffington White Horse Earrings in Copper with 925 silver ear wires
The Uffington White Horse is thought to be one of the earliest chalk figures in Britain with evidence that it dates to the late Bronze Age, some time between 1380 and 550 BC. It's is a triumph of an ancient minimalism and captures the essence of the animal beautifully. The horse has always been an ancient symbol of status and power prized by the elite throughout history.
Our tribute to the White Horse is etched on beautifully patinated copper. Each copper piece measures approx 20m tall x 25mm wide and is mounted on a 915 Silver ear wire . The pendant is made from 0.9mm thick copper and is in the form of a gently curved shell-like shape.
Each White Horse pair of earrings are handmade and totally unique. No two are the same. The photograph is an example only. All items are made to order. On request, we will send you photographs of your particular item prior to dispatch for your approval.
Copper and its alloys; bronze and brass, are natural materials. Unless otherwise stated your piece will come coated in a tough invisible transparent lacquer to protect the finish however over time and depending on how it's treated this coating may break down. As such, depending on your body chemistry and atmospheric conditions this piece may leave a harmless greenish deposit on the skin. This is easily washed off and can be minimized by keeping the ring clean and dry or lacquering/waxing it yourself.
