These lotus earrings are unusual, with a pop of color through sari silk, and cute square cut outs. The clay focal beads are glazed front and back.
I handmade these in my studio. Beginning with raw clay, the focal bead was formed, dried slowly, fired in a kiln to 1800 degrees Fahrenheit, dipped in glaze, and then fired again to over 2300 degrees Fahrenheit. The glass beads were purchased, but I finished the wire wrapping and ear wires. The ear wires are made from hypoallergenic titanium wire. These artisan earrings are 60 mm, or around 2.5 inches, from the top of the ear wire to the bottom of the drop. They weigh 7 grams each. If you need a reference, a nickel weighs 4 grams, and a quarter weighs 5 grams.
All items are one of a kind - each one is made uniquely for this auction, and is ready to ship! Orders are shipped within one business day and items are placed in an organza bag suitable for gift giving. I guarantee all of my products, period. As with all art jewelry, it should only be worn on occasion, never during strenuous activity.
