delicate decoration

A pair of classic, polished earrings that are fantastic for everyday wear and go with just about anything! I'm very happy with this purchase. Shipping and presentation were excellent as ever.

I liked these earrings so much and the price point was so reasonable that I bought a second pair on sale. I know that there is a real leaf encased in the plating, so if the first pair wears out I will have another one ready. I know exactly what leaf this artist chose to preserve: Dischidia ruscifolia, a vining relative of the Hoya family which is very popular among plant collectors. I do grow this plant along with many Hoyas. A hanging basket overflowing with this Dischidia's vines appears as thousands of tiny green hearts, and gives rise to the common name of the "thousand hearts vine." I own several pieces of jewelry from this artist and these earrings are of the same high quality construction as his other work.

I bought the pink tourmaline pair first and liked them a lot, so I bought the garnet pair so I could wear both pairs at once in my double-pierced ears. Pretty and classy, even when worn in multiple-pierced ears.
