Beautiful modern piece.

Sun, Moon, and Triple Goddess
Hand hammered copper and silver married metals and turquoise hanging earrings. The texture of these earrings shimmer in the light. The warmth of copper and the coolness of silver combine to set off three small turquoise stones in each earring.
Reminds me of the sun and the moon – or the Red Rocks of Sedona at twilight – blue sky (almost turquoise and periwinkle), warm earth, cool air. One of my favorite places to be at dusk! Magical.
Entirely hand-fabricated (hand made). No two earrings are alike. 3 inches long, 1/2 inch wide. Silver wire. Signed “Matagi Sorensen” on the back of each earring.

Polished Silver and Turquoise Shadowbox Pendant
I love making shadowboxes!
Turquoise housed in a modern-styled object with organic detailing make a stunning combination. This is a one-of-a-kind hand-hammered hollow form.
This pendant sold the same day I made it. It is about 2 1/2 inches long, about 1/2 inch wide and 1/4 inch deep. Holes are cut so that the chain can pass through the pendant.

Married Metals Dangling Earrings
I love working with organic shapes. Curves make me happy. Earthy colors, fluid shape. Simple and elegant.
These copper and silver earrings are two and three-quarter inches long and half an inch wide. Hand-hammered and one-of-a-kind. Comfortable to wear, very light.
The variations on the surface of the metal are due to the creation process; they create a shimmering ripple effect with light further enhancing the fluid line of the design.

Azurite Malachite Dangling Earrings
It is rare to find stones like these, so I was so excited when I came across them. This particular set of stones comes from southern Arizona which is also a plus. (I like to buy locally when I can – and the southwest has great gems and minerals to chose from).
Azurite is a deep blue copper mineral, and so it is found in areas where there are copper deposits. Because azurite and malachite have a similar chemical composition, they can be found together, making a striking color combination of deep blue and bright green. (Wikipedia)
These earrings are hand-cut and hand-hammered. It is increasingly difficult to find stones like these, so I don’t know when I will be making my next pair.

Sun Meets Moon Shield – Married Metals Hand Hammered Earrings
I made these earrings last week in preparation for Tucson Meet Yourself, an annual folk festival in Tucson. I wish I made more than one pair because it sold immediately.
This pair is made of silver and copper hand hammered married metals with turquoise. They were a lot of fun to make! They look great on everyone.
These are hand-made. No two earrings are exactly alike.

Made to Order
$110.00
These earrings are about dime-sized. No two earrings are exactly alike since the pieces are hand-cut and hand-hammered. Of course, that is their charm.
The lapis in this pair reminds me of the blue of the night sky.
