For some reason a ladder (scala in Italian) came to mind when we spotted these beauties. Brass statement earrings supporting colored beads for a special touch. The brass frame in a simple inverted "U" shape with gemstones suspended in between each side. The gemstone closest to the ear is a polished round sphere showcased in a brass "cup", while the same gemstone at the bottom is of a different form, larger and less polished.
We love the thoughtful consideration of each component that went into making them. We were only able to get one in each color.
These earrings are from a family of artisans we discovered and fell in love with their tremendous talents and creative use of materials, not to mention their beaming smiles.
NOTE: Because of the stones that make up these earrings, if you have sensitivity to heavy earrings, these beauties may not be for you.
Details: Organic scala earrings with hook fastenings for pierced ears.
Material: Brass, stone (quartz, lapis lazuli, tiger eye, calcite, amethyst) depending on option selected
