These asymmetric earrings were created from two vintage clip-back earrings. One features a lovely unfoiled facetted rhinestone drop and the other is set with rhinestones. Both were orphaned and have black settings, one of which shows some wear exposing the grey metal below. A vintage Czech black glass bead is the final link in this story.

These earrings have been made in my Melbourne workshop with vintage materials which may hold some evidence of their former life in a deepened patina and minor wear. I think that is what gives them so much charm.
