Product Description
This earring was inspired by Rivendell in "The Lord of the Rings"; the greens represent the valley and the blue and silver represents the river Bruinen. I added the butterfly charm because it looks like something that would belong in Imladris.
This is a single chain earring/ear-piece that connects from the earlobe to the upper cartilage of the ear, with a pierced post earring on either end. (Don't have your cartilage pierced? I can make them with non-pierced cuffs, too! See info below.)
The ear-piece is made using enameled copper wire in blue and two shades of green and bright aluminum wire (the silver color). I twist and cut the wire for the chain myself, so there are some places in the copper rings where the copper color shows through where it was cut. It isn't very noticeable, though, but this is just a heads up so you know.
At the end of the ear-piece are a silver-colored metal butterfly charm, a blue glass cube bead, and a round green glass bead. The entire ear-piece is 3 1/2" (8.9 cm) long from top earring ball to the bottom of the butterfly charm, and is 2" (5.1 cm) long from earring post to earring post.
Inspiration/Story Behind This Product
I came up with the idea for this style earring because I have multiple piercings in both ears and wanted something uniquely fantasy for them- what I ended up with was this style of elven/fae earring.
Materials Used
copper wire, aluminum wire, metal earring posts, glass beads, butterfly charm
More Info
This is for a single ear piece. For no additional cost, I can switch out the bottom post with a clip on earring and/or replace the top post with a cuff like this earring:

If you want this, please contact me via Artfire or send me an email at merigreenleaf@gmail.com
----------------------------------------------------
I can also switch out these posts with Sterling Silver or 14k gold plated posts, but that would cost extra- please contact me if you are interested in that and I will let you know what the price would be.
I am open to custom orders, so if you would like something different, just let me know!
