These beautiful recycled 925 sterling silver & 9ct gold earrings are part of the Lyra collection, one of Ara | The Altar's smallest collections. Lyra depicts a lyre and is home to one of our brightest stars, Vega.
In Ancient Greece, the lyre closely resembling the harp was the most unifying musical instrument. Lyric poetry to the accompaniment of the lyre was how society experienced storytelling.
Made entirely from one form, the Lyra earrings are designed to be worn without the need for a back. The hoop can be pushed into the piercing as far as it will comfortably go, and it will sit in place.
Crafted using the ancient art of lost wax casting.
Measuring approximately 15mm (outside diameter) and 2.5mm at their widest point.

Ara | the altar was created by Lauren who makes all her pieces by hand in her studio in North West England. One of the two main inspirations for her work is astronomy and nature and the result is fine jewellery for stylish everyday living. The environment is firmly at the heart of Lauren's craft with all precious metals used recycled as well as biodegradable packaged material.
