Maple Candy - Earrings in Pure Copper

Description

Warm yourself up this Fall and Winter with the glowing copper pieces from my Lush Autumn Collection.

Accented with jasper, these glowing maple leaves are made of imported glass, and hearken to the Arts and Crafts movement with their simply elegant design.

You behold,
High on the breast of yon dark mountain, dark
With stony barrenness, a shining speck
Bright as a sunbeam sleeping till a shower
Brush it away, or cloud pass over it;
And such it might be deemed--a sleeping sunbeam;
But 'tis a plot of cultivated ground,
Cut off, an island in the dusky waste;
And that attractive brightness is its own.
The lofty site, by nature framed to tempt
Amid a wilderness of rocks and stones
The tiller's hand, a hermit might have chosen,
For opportunity presented, thence
Far forth to send his wandering eye o'er land
And ocean, and look down upon the works,
The habitations, and the ways of men,
Himself unseen! But no tradition tells
That ever hermit dipped his maple dish
In the sweet spring that lurks 'mid yon green
fields;
~ The Pastor, William Wordsworth Longfellow
