Spirit Level Earrings — Mustard

A carpenter's level in mustard yellow enamel, with a small green vial set into the middle. The vial is a separate piece of enamel fired into a recess, so it sits slightly below the surface the way a real one does.

The longest piece in the tool drawer and the lightest of the three. It hangs horizontally rather than vertically, which makes it the odd one out on the ear and the reason people either want it immediately or not at all.

Specification

• Charm: enamelled brass, mustard yellow with a green vial
• Hoop: polished brass, 12 mm, hinged catch
• Charm length: approximately 24 mm

Brass darkens slowly with wear; a jeweller's cloth brings it back in a minute, and the enamel needs nothing but a wipe. Take them off before swimming or showering. Full guidance is on Care & Materials.
