Aqua and Red Flower Earrings, Czech Glass Turquoise Coral Handmade Jewelry


flower pansy earrings gift for women



Teal and red is such a beautiful combination as the FIORI d’ACQUA handmade flower earrings definitely prove! The beauties, perfect for spring and summer jewelry wear, feature two sided Czech glass pansy flower beads, rustic turquoise discs and faceted red coral rounds. The Czech beads were created from glowing translucent and opaque aqua blue glass with a flower design pressed into the glass. The unique earrings absolutely radiate eye catching goodness when backlit (see photo # 2 and a photo at the bottom of the page). To bring out the exquisite details of the pansy flowers and to add a vintage vibe, a red Picasso finish was applied to the beads. The finish was then polished off the flat faces, leaving the finish in the middle of the flowers, demarcating each petal and on the edge of the beads. Since the flower beads are handmade, each side of the beads are similar but also a bit different. Since the flower beads are two sided, the artisan earrings look fabulous from any angle. “Fiori d’acqua” is Italian for “aqua flowers.”

To perfectly complement the flowers, a rustic turquoise disc and a faceted red coral bead were stacked above each pansy. The genuine turquoise discs were hand cut so are more rustic in shape. The blue turquoise is highlighted by the natural black matrix that runs through both discs. A copper spacer disc separates the turquoise from the glass beads. Above the turquoise, also separated by a copper disc, is a red coral round. Since the red coral rounds are faceted, they add subtle sparkle to the earrings design. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the FIORI d’ACQUA earrings were created for the woman who adores one of a kind, artisan flower jewelry.
