Abalone Shell Post Earrings
Small, but you notice them.
The way abalone catches light is different every time. Blue shifts to green. Copper flashes through. The shell does the work. The silver just holds it.
Wear them and feel grounded. The shell does what it does. You just show up.

- Fine silver bezel and decorative detail
- Sterling silver post and butterfly back

Each piece of abalone is naturally unique and has its own pattern of blues, greens, and iridescent shimmer.
One of a kind. Handcrafted. Designed to be lived in.
Materials
Each Sun Salt Silver piece is handcrafted using sterling and fine silver with natural stones chosen for their character, color, and story.
I work primarily with turquoise, opal, gemstones, shark tooth fossils, and other stones that feel grounded and alive. No two stones are identical — natural variations are part of the beauty.
All jewelry is made by hand in my studio using traditional silversmithing techniques. The result is work that feels substantial, personal, and meant to be worn for years.
Care & Longevity
Sun Salt Silver jewelry is made to be worn and lived in. With a little care, your piece will keep its beauty for years.
Because many designs feature natural stones like turquoise, opal, shell, or fossilized materials, treat your jewelry gently.
A few simple guidelines:
• Remove before swimming, showering, or working with your hands
• Avoid lotions, perfumes, and cleaning products
• Store pieces separately to prevent scratching
• Gently polish silver with a soft cloth when needed
Natural stones can be sensitive to water and chemicals. Keeping your jewelry dry and stored safely will help preserve its color and finish.
