Daisy Flowers and Hearts Earrings, Copper Purple Fuchsia Handmade Jewelry


daisy flower and hearts earrings gift for women



The BONJOUR handmade earrings will make you smile and want to say “Hello” to the warmer days of spring and summer each and every time you wear them. Beautiful one of a kind floral earrings, they were created from copper daisy flower charms, artisan spotted purple and fuchsia lampwork beads and sparkling Swarovski crystals. The oh-so-pretty flower charms were individually artisan created from pure copper. The design is a sweet daisy in a heart, the flower raised to provide wonderful texture to the charms. Torched at high heat to give a pleasing patina, the charms were then polished to bring out the detail and sealed. The daisies have a beautiful copper glow that the photos don’t do justice to. Since the flower and heart charms were individually created, you can see that there are slight differences in each charm - guaranteed handmade! The back of the charms are fairly smooth.

Stacked above each daisy heart charms is a speckled lampwork glass beads and two colors of Swarovski crystals. The lampwork beads, which were individually artisan handmade, started out as clear glass. When the glass was still in its molten stage, plum purple and fuschia pink frit was applied to add fun color and darker fuchsia spots. These translucent beads absolutely glow when the earrings are worn! Copper bicone beads were nestled into the top and bottom of each lampie. Perfectly matching the colors of the lampwork beads and to add nega sparkle, two colors of faceted Swarovski crystal bicones were used: amethyst purple and fuchsia. A single 2 mm copper bead separates the two crystals. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BONJOUR handmade earrings were created for the woman who loves to wear cheerful artisan jewelry! “Bonjour” is French for “hello.”
