These leaf earrings are brass charms with some amazing detail, which have been carefully treated, painted and varnished to bring out beautiful tones and depth of colour and to show the incredible veining and other details of the metal. They are designed to be reminiscent of the beautiful, softly coloured lily pads found in Art Nouveau paintings. They are handmade in our Edinburgh studio and no two pairs are quite the same! Each leaf is 15mm long (about the size of a thumbnail) and are available in two length options, both identical in appearance. The shorter earring wire measures 3.5cm long, and the leaf is designed to hang just an inch or less below the earlobe. The longer earwire option measures 5cm long and the leaf will hang at jawline level. The ear wires are made from solid brass.
