The "Frida Kahlo" handmade earrings feature lightweight artisan Frida charms, Czech glass discs and Swarovski crystals - unique jewelry gift for women.
If you are a fan of the iconic, world renowned Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, you will absolutely love the appropriately named FRIDA KAHLO dangle earrings! The boho earrings feature a Frida print on artist’s board dangles, rich colored Czech glass discs and sparkling Swarovski crystals. The unique Kahlo rectangle dangles were individually artisan handmade out of artist’s board, a heavy duty, archival quality paper board. A permanent transfer was applied and then sealed. The picture of Frida is a famous painting called “Self Portrait with Monkey, 1940.” One of her pet monkeys sits on her shoulder and a red ribbon twines through her braided hair and around her neck. The background is filled with lush greenery. The back of the dangles is smooth and has also been sealed. Since the charms are made from artist’s board, the earrings are very lightweight to wear. Because the Frida Kahlo charms are gorgeous in their own right, simple complements were all that were needed to complete the earrings. Two Czech glass discs in a rich orangey-red color are stacked above the charms, highlighting the red ribbon in the painting. A single faceted Swarovski crystal in a color called “padparadscha” sits on top of the Czech discs separated by a small sterling silver bead. A padparadscha crystal dangles below the Frida charms, adding eye-catching sparkle at each movement of the head. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the lightweight-to-wear FRIDA KAHLO earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who adores the magical realist art and intriguing life of the famous artist.
The lightweight Frida charms are based on her famous "Self Portrait with Monkey, 1940" painting.
