Lady Gwendolyn

These little Victorian darlings are so feminine, and, I just love them! The stunning pink amethyst, heart-shaped briolettes are of the highest quality---I hand picked these two beads personally from my local bead show.

 

The frames of these earrings are made from sterling silver wire in various gauges. They have been shaped, hammered, coiled, and twisted into this upside down heart shape. To compliment the pink amethyst, I've chosen faceted iolite (water sapphire) rondelles.

 

They hang from a pair of my handmade and secure ear-wires which have been decorated with twisted wire.

 

To bring out the wire textures, they have been oxidized and then hand polished to a matte finish.

 

All metals are sterling silver.

 

Measurement: 2 1/8 inches from the tops of ear-wires

 

Weight: 3 grams per earring

 

Thank you for visiting my shop!
