Tuvstarr - By SofiesC


Tuvstarr - By SofiesC
Available Exclusively At Wire Boutique
Meaurements: 3.9 cm in length and 1.1 in widthMaterials: Prasiolite (AKA Green Amethyst), Aquamarine, Sterling silver
These earrings were inspired by the artist John Bauers beautiful painting "Tuvstarr" where they also got their name. His paintings were often mystical and subdued in colors with amazing details.They are made from skratch with sterling silver wire serving as the base for the ear post and lots and lots of tiny silver beads ornating it. From the ear posts hang clusters of prasiolite and aquamarine rondels and to finish the earrings off I added a pair of beautiful prasiolite heart briolettes.There is a great deal of wire work put in to the earstuds that have been carefully coiled to look pretty even from the back. The earrings have also been oxidized and carefully polished to bring out details. This piece, as well as all other jewellery from SofiesC, is also available for custom orders in other sizes, beads or metals.
