Memories of the past - pure silver and labradorite earrings

These intricate and rich earrings have been inspired by some memories of my past..Every people we met in our life leave in our heart a smile or a tear..
I first shaped and hammered the silver wire then wrapped it with meters of fine silver wire and enriched silver round and smooth beads, flashy blue fire gemmy AAA labradorite faceted teardrop briolettes, bali silver daisies and labradorite micro-faceted round beads.The flower earposts are in silver plated ~ definitely beautiful!
They're 1.77 inches/4.5 cm long ~ from the bottom of the earposts.Oxidation gives a special charm to them and makes the labradorite stand out greatly!Precious, elegant and mysterious, these earrings will enrich your natural beauty..

Dolce far niente earrings

These earrings have been inspired by those days in which you fully enjoy the peace of your house, its silence, its colours and its scents...you only have to close your eyes and relax...

I first shaped and hammered the silver wire and then coiled with meters and meters of sterling silver finest wire.In the middle of it I've put a magnificent step cut smoky quartz: this bead has an unbelievably stunning shade of intense smoky brown with superb step cut faceting of the highest quality for extra shimmer.

Just below a cascade of tiny and white freshwater pearls. At the very end you'll find a faceted heart shaped smoky quartz briolette whose shades are adorable..

They measure 1.96 inches (5 cm) - ear wires excluded.

And now, take a break and relax, wherever you are!

Do you have some tips? :)

Just below there's a very rich bunch of beautiful and flawless smoky quartz faceted rondelles which is atop a black rose made of oynx stone: it's so beautiful and rich in colour!

Last year I spent two weeks in Mexico, and more precisely in Akumal, Yucatan..It was a great trip and I enjoyed it so much..I can perfectly remember the brilliant colours of plants and flowers and for the first time I was introduce to Maya's culture..so fascinating..These earrings have been inspired by this journey..
Made of copper and labradorite, moss agate and freshwater pearls..strongly oxidised to give them a more antique look!
