Stars and Moon Silver Jewelry Collection

This is my collection of handmade silver celestial jewelry, pieces I fabricate by hand in fine silver and Argentium sterling silver, shaped after the moon, the stars, and the wishes we send them. Each one is a small talisman for the dreamers.

I do not think any dreamer can resist the stars and the moon. As a child I would lie in the grass and stargaze, wishing upon a star and dreaming about the future, and I am still drawn to the feminine energy of the moon and everything the stars and moon symbolize. Each piece here is made to hold a little of that wonder.

Made by hand, from sheet and wire

Each star and moon takes shape from flat sheet and wire in my hands. I even make my own silver, fine silver melted with Argentium for a brighter, more tarnish-resistant metal than traditional sterling, and then I stamp, saw, file, sand, and solder every piece myself, one at a time, at my bench. They are made to be worn by day and dreamed in by night, sturdy enough for real life and light enough that you forget they are there.

What metal is Pure Whimsy celestial jewelry made from?

Most pieces are made from recycled fine silver and Argentium sterling silver. I make my own metal by melting fine silver together with Argentium, which is brighter and more tarnish-resistant than traditional sterling.

Are these pieces handmade?

Yes. I hand fabricate every piece from sheet metal and wire, hand stamping, sawing, filing, sanding, and soldering each one myself, one at a time, in my studio.

Will the silver tarnish?

Fine silver and Argentium sterling silver tarnish very little, even less than traditional sterling silver, and every order includes a Pro-Polish pad with simple instructions to keep your piece bright for years. Many pieces are also intentionally oxidized, which is a finish, not tarnish.

Does it arrive gift-ready?

Yes. Every order ships in a branded gift box with a handwritten note and a Pro-Polish pad, tucked into a hand-sewn jewelry bag or finished with a sticker, and sent via USPS Ground Advantage.
