Babushka

Description

Following a fashion trend of this fall/winter inspired by Russian costumes – that I simply and completely ADORE! - I’ve created these dazzling earrings based on white hues.
I first shaped, and then hammered, the base of solid copper wire, coiling it with meters of the finest copper wire.
These earrings, with a Russian mood, have been adorned with white fresh water pearls, little glass Czech Charlottes (pearl finish), white chalcedony faceted briolettes with a milky glow – they throw a nice reflection of light - flashy blue fire gemmy AA labradorite faceted onion cut teardrop briolettes, whose colors and shades are amazing!
Well, I have to confess you that I'm fully in love with copper (I'm sure you guessed it!!) as I'm keen of its warm color - especially when oxidised -and I'm sure it perfectly matches up with many, many shades of gemstones. So, you can expect to see many other copper pieces in my shop in the coming months!
They’re 2.36 inches long (6 cm).
Striking, elegant and one-of-a-kind earrings..they’ll look marvelous on your ears!
