These earrings feature copper rising suns - or maybe setting suns... or even possibly flowers - it really just depends on your point of view at any given moment. The copper was impressed with a die, then sawed out, sanded, antiqued and polished to bring out the pattern. Three faceted turquoise-colored Czech Glass teardrops dangle from each one, adding movement. The facets allow for a nice play of light. The copper gives these earrings a bit of a rustic look, but those lovely glass beads are all about elegance. So... wear them with whatever you want! The ear wires are Niobium, which is considered one of the least allergenic metals. Wires used and bead caps are copper.
SIZE: These earrings hang about 1 3/4 inches and are about 7/8 inches wide. Each earring weighs about 3 grams.
MATERIALS: Copper, Czech Glass, Niobium
