Silver Swirls and Ruby Jade Earrings

Description

When you wear these earrings, you will display your love of handmade jewelry. "Ruby jade" beads are highlighted with sterling silver elements. "Ruby Jade" is not a natural stone or a true jade. It is synthetic. Each rondelle/roundel bead is bracketed by swirls of sterling silver. The swirls were made by hand coiling lengths of sterling silver wire.

Each fish hook earwire was fashioned from sterling silver wire and partially flattened to echo the flatness of the coils. A tiny sterling silver bead punctuates the bottom of each dangle. The swirls and beads were strung on a sterling silver headpin which was handwrapped multiple times for security.

Please note: It recently came to my attention the supplier of these beads had inaccurately represented these "Ruby jade" beads as a natural white stone which had been dyed red. I edited the listing to reflect that it is, in fact, a synthetic stone. So, it is best to think of it as very pretty glass
