Mixed Metal Polymer Clay Earrings, Lightweight Boho Handmade Jewelry


rustic copper and gold hand painted polymer clay earrings

The "Rustica" earrings feature artisan handmade polymer clay dangles with a rustic vibe, vintage pipestone beads and Swarovski crystals - lightweight jewelry for women.


Big and bold with a breathtaking mixed metal metallic sheen, the unique RUSTICA handmade earrings will definitely add a large dose of boho dazzle to your earlobes! The rustic, one of a kind earrings feature lightweight artisan dangles. They were individually created from black polymer clay, hand etched and then hand painted with shimmering gold and copper metallic acrylic pigments that highlight the etching. For a fun look, the dangles are similar in design but are also uniquely different, as you can see in the photos.  Wire wrapped above each polymer clay dangle are two vintage pipestone bauxite heishe beads from Ghana. The rustic, hand cut pipestone beads have such a wonderful earthy color, mostly brick red but with some creamy beige. Perched on top of the vintage beads is a single jet black swarovski crystals separated by a copper disc spacer. A perfect jewelry gift idea for the woman who appreciates wearable art and loves a boho look, the unique, lightweight RUSTICA artisan earrings were carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs.
