Long silver leaf post earrings
Long silver posts made from real leaves. I was sitting at the playground watching my daughter play and I saw this bush. Its leaves were like the willow leaves I use a lot in my jewellery, but smaller. So I took a branch home and made these earrings from them.
The leaves are appr. 35 mm long ( 1 1/3 inch) and 5 mm (1/5 inch) wide. I made several of these and they vary a little in size. The picture is an example of one pair. I made the earrings with fine silver and the post and backs are sterling silver.
