Blue Spikes Earrings, Boho Lampwork Swarovski Handmade Jewelry Gift

The unique "Blue Icicles" handmade earrings feature blue lampwork glass beads from two artists and sparkling Swarovski crystals.


The beautiful BLUE ICICLES handmade earrings are truly unique, a pair of boho earrings for the woman who adores one of a kind artisan jewelry. The earrings feature cool blue lampwork glass pieces from two talented artists and sparkling white opal Swarovski crystals. The eye catching “icicle” spikes hanging at the bottom of the earrings were created from dark blue, almost black, glass with streaks of icy blue running up and down for a lovely contrast. The glass spikes taper from the top to bottom with each tip having a tiny “drop.” Because the blue glass icicles were individually handmade, as you can see in the photos they are not exactly the same, something that adds extreme charm to the overall design.  Above the icicles, separated by two copper daisy spacers, are two lampwork glass rondelles, also individually artisan handmade. The lush blue lampwork beads beads started out as clear glass. When they were still in their molten stage, a rich midnight blue glass frit was applied to form the subtle spots. These lampwork beads positively glow when backlit! A faceted Swarovski crystal "white opal" bicone sits on top of the blue rondelles, separated by a copper daisy spacer. The sparkling crystals are well names since various colors show up when the light hits them just right - just like an opal, something the photos fail to show. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the BLUE ICICLES earrings are a perfect gift for the woman who loves to wear unique boho jewelry.
