This is an original design by me, featuring a rustic looking cross design made of geometric shapes reminiscent of Mexican ethnic art. Colors are turquoise, dark red and mustard on a black background.
The eggshell pieces are set into open-backed Sterling Silver Cinch Mounts measuring 1-1/2 inch top to bottom (including the loop). The French ear wires are also Sterling Silver.
A matching necklace is available - see my other listings.
A little about the process: I create this unusual jewelry, starting with a real ostrich shell. I design each piece individually using a beeswax and dye process similar to batik.
The back of the shell is filled, and the front is coated, both with a clear hard finish to strengthen the shell and enhance the colors.
After the design is finished I cut and shape the shell piece, and fashion it into the beautiful jewelry that you see here.
This jewelry is fairly sturdy (similar to ceramic), and will not break easily with regular use, although I do not recommend immersing it in water.
Each piece is signed by the artist (me) and comes in a gift box.
