High fashion statement earrings that can be worn dressy or casual. They're stunning, and sure to get you noticed.

* Evergreen leaves symbolize control, perspective, discipline.

The leaves are hand picked evergreen laurel leaves that have been preserved in pure sterling silver electroplate. Each one is a unique piece of natural art.

Each earring is approximately 3" to 3.25" from the bottom of the earring wire to the bottom of the leaf. Leaves measure approximately 2.25" X 3/4" (at widest point). Freshwater pearl (in a pale greyish / sage color) and peridot accent beads. Sterling silver earring wires with decorative balls.

*Please be aware that the leaves will develop a natural patina over time.

ELECTROFORM PROCESS: The electroform process begins with a handpicked leaf that was soaked in a special solution to dissolve the fleshly portions of the leaf. What remains is the harder leaf veins and edges, which are hand painted with a copper based paint to conduct electricity. The leaf is then dipped into a solution of 24 kt gold, pure silver, pure copper or a mixture that makes a unique color.
