Story:
This design was a happy outcome of a bad day. My youngest was a baby and after a sleepless night and the stress of running a small business came to a head, I gave up for the day with trying to chip away at jobs during naps and instead sat down with a sketchbook and a tv show. I was loosely inspired by the structured lines of a stone bridge and was compelled to find a way to harmonise colour, gold and a stone-like colour.
I love these earrings and to me they speak of longed for holidays and times of being present with no worry but what's right before you.

What makes it a second:
Tiny glaze bubbles or a hand-painted gold detail that’s gone a little off-track. The green lines sometimes have an imperfectly shaped line where they meet the gold bar. Difficult to spot when worn. Often only discernible to our trained eye. If you are ok with process marks these will be perfect for you. Still very beautiful, just not quite up to very hight premium quality standard.
