As any musician knows, keeping time starts with the downbeat. But sometimes, the rhythm calls for improvisation—and that’s where the real magic happens. Made from reclaimed drum cymbals and polished to a smooth finish, the Downbeat earrings celebrate both structure and spontaneity.

Each piece measures 1" tall by 0.75" wide and hangs from kidney-style earring hooks, which are nickel- and lead-free. As with all jewelry from Full Circle Co., each pair is unique, shaped by the music of its past.
