Hand cut, shaped and polished, then individually painted, these wooden hoop earrings are sustainable, unique, lightweight and extremely wearable. The exotic decoration on these would make them a perfect gift for someone who loves the bold luxurious combination of red, pink and gold.
BIANCA ROSE WOOD
It’s easy to feel good about wearing jewellery made from recycled wood. Smaller pieces of this amazing material are so often thrown away, all of the beautiful woods in my workshop were rescued from waste of one kind or another, many from my past life as a furniture maker. Cutting and shaping each pair by hand allows me to use pieces which it just wouldn't be economical to laser cut, and to waste as little as possible of these wonderful woods.
The wood I've used for this pair is a piece of vintage mahogany faced with decorative Walnut veneer. Rescued from the door panels of a broken 1930s wardrobe, this rich and beautiful piece of wood definitely deserved to be so much more!
Wood by its very nature has infinite variations of pattern and tone, making each and every pair of earrings completely unique. Add hand painted detail and there you go, jewellery as individual as the person wearing it.
The red, pink and gold bring to mind gold embelished eastern art, or the exquisite centre of a beautiful flower. The design is a mirror print, which creates a lovely marbled texture in the paint, and of course makes each pair a total one off.
