Sterling Silver Tibetan Spaniel Earrings by Donna Pizarro from her Animal Whimsey Collection of Fine Tibetan Spaniel Jewelry, Fine Dog Jewelry and Silver Tibetan Spaniel Jewelry.

These Tibbies are one of over 150 in our "Animal Whimsey" line of copyrighted pet jewelry. Each earring is custom made using the lost wax casting process and hand finished in our studio located in Dallas, TX. We specialize in unique, custom jewelry and more.

A special patina with liver of sulphur was applied to bring out more of the detail of the piece and give it an antique look. Liver of sulphur is used to create a patina which can range from a brown, purple, blue, green to a black. Each piece is going to be unique since the patina is painted on and then I buff off what I want to remain shiny. As the patina cures, the silver reacts chemically with the suphur which makes it darker and as it oxidises, it eventually turns black. The end result is the texture I use with sand blasting and carved details are made more visible.


This measure 1 5/8" x 6/8" at the widest part of the tibbie.
