Earrings #CEP2310
2.75” Length
Unlimited Edition
part of the Garland Collection

Materials: Hand-crafted whitewood rounds from the Philippines (8mm), magnesite heart beads in turquoise blue (12mm), and vintage matte pure brass 4-leaf clover chain are all linked by 18 ga. golden wire loops, and suspend from gold plated stainless steel ear hooks. Full length top to bottom is 2.75” (including hook).

{ Please note: these beads are not carved from natural turquoise stone, but are made to look similar to this historic material (dyed & stabilized magnesite has a similar matrix pattern and pop of color). One of the main differences between the materials is that magnesite does not contain copper. Why magnesite? I have not yet found a heart-shaped carved turquoise bead that satisfies my aesthetic requirements for these earrings. Hope you dig them as much as I do. Questions? Just reach out. }

Profile: A tribute to the garden, and bearing witness to its cyclical process: from the collection and sowing of seeds (whitewood bead) to giving the sprouts love, protection and attention (magnesite heart bead) to harvest time and watching the plants suddenly stand tall enough to open up and smile back (clover links).
