Leaf Earrings, Boho Orange Red Purple Gold Lampwork Handmade Jewelry

The fiery "Autumn Flames" handmade boho earrings feature artisan polymer clay leaves, artisan lampwork glass beads and Swarovski crystals - gorgeous leaf jewelry for women.

Gorgeous in all their intense fall colors, the AUTUMN FLAMES one of a kind earrings imparts a colorful boho style. The beautiful jewelry was handmade with artisan leaves, artisan lampwork glass beads, copper and sterling silver. The eye-catching leaves were individually handmade from polymer clay, an artist's clay that is light in weight but very durable. The leaves have amazing ruffled detail and are narrower at the tops and wider at the somewhat wavy bottoms. Handpainted, the leaves are a fiery blend of orange, red and purple with metallic gold trim at the bottom and two curving lines of turquoise running from top to bottom. The back side of the leaves are painted with a metallic lavender purple color with subtle sparkles. To perfectly complement the colors of the leaves, lampwork glass beads and Swarovski crystals were stacked above. The lampwork beads were individually created from red glass with a dark blue/purple band around the middle. The finish is very high gloss so the beads have a wonderful shine. Separated by two flower shaped copper spacers, a sparkling dark purple faceted Swarovski crystal bicone sits on top of each lampwork bead. The color, called “purple velvet,” is a rich, regal shade of dark translucent purple. A small copper bead caps the Swarovski crystals. To add even more sparkle, a small purple velvet crystal was added to each sterling silver French hook earwire for a lovely finish to the design. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the AUTUMN FLAMES earrings were created for the woman who loves a colorful boho look in lightweight to wear jewelry.

Rainforest Leaf Earrings, Garnet Blue Lampwork Boho Handmade Jewelry

The "Rainforest Dreams" boho earrings feature artisan copper leaf charms, copper chain dangles with red garnet, artisan spotted turquoise lampwork glass beads and ruby red Czech glass beads - one of a kind jewelry for women.

Looking as if they are part of an exotic plant in a lush tropical forest, the RAINFOREST DREAMS handmade earrings are definitely not your ordinary earrings. Filled with earthy boho goodness, the one of a kind earrings feature artisan copper leaf charms, rustic artisan made dotted turquoise blue lampwork glass beads, copper chain dangles with faceted red garnet and garnet red Czech glass. The copper leaves were individually artisan handcrafted.  As you can see in the photos, they are very similar in design but are somewhat different, just like natural leaves. The leaves are filled with incredible detail with the top of each leaf somewhat folded together at the top. To add unexpected eye appeal and much movement, twisted link copper chain was wire wrapped into the folds to dangle down. A rich red faceted garnet nugget with a hint of purple was attached to the end of each chain.

The unique handmade earrings feature beautifully detailed copper lead charms with an exotic rainforest look to them.

To perfectly highlight the beauty of the copper leaves, rustic artisan lampwork glass bead were added to the top of the leaves where the stem would be. The lampwork beads were created with a base of light turquoise glass with darker blue spots and splotches. The lampwork beads are not perfectly round, but more of a nugget shape, and they were lightly acid etched for a velvety matte finish.  A translucent ruby red Czech glass melon bead was placed on top of each lampwork bead, separated by a copper daisy spacer. The melon beads have a light tan Picasso finish which settled in the creases between each ridge for an antiqued look.  For extra adornment, a garnet nugget was added to each sterling silver French hook earwire. Carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs, the RAINFOREST DREAMS earrings were crafted for the woman who loves jewelry with an exotic flair.
