Fossil Flower earrings with Jade
Fossil Flower earrings with Jade
Warm honey and beige toned fossilized coral cabochons in a long triangle shape are paired with deep green jade accent stones. Hand-carved silver flowers bloom around the fine silver bezels, and the open frame on the back allows you to admire the patterns on the underside of the stones. A strip of fine silver runs horizontally between a break in the stones on each earring in the kintsugi style*. Round jade cabs are set on the sterling silver ear wires so that the fossil corals dangle directly below. The silver has been oxidized and given a brushed finish to bring out the details in the flowers.
These earrings measure 2 1/4" long from the top of the ear wire, and 1/2" wide. This one of a kind pair of earrings is ready to ship!
*Kintsugi is the Japanese technique of using precious metal-typically gold-to repair cracks or breaks. Traditionally used in pottery, this method celebrates the philosophy that a broken object can be repaired and that flaws can be beautiful.
