I don't know from where the idea for these came except perhaps a simple sketchbook drawing. I liked both designs on the pendants but couldn't decide which to use, so threw them both in and enjoyed the result. I made my own fine silver tube beads in order to match the organic quality of the pendants, then the bronze beads for accent. Sterling wire forms a long earwire that goes down the back of the earring, which has a total length of about 2.25". Bronze is coated with an anti-tarnish compound to keep the color. Made by Shauna.
