Traditional filigree earrings from Oaxaca, worked in sterling silver — a fan of fine wire, coiled and looped into a half-moon, anchored by domed bosses and studded with tiny silver florets. The kind of work that takes a jeweller's whole hand to make and reads, worn, as pure ornament.
They hang with weight but wear light, the openwork catching shadow and shine in equal measure. Flowers at the crown, a bloom at the base — a whole small garden in oxidized sterling.
Statement earrings in the old sense: made to be seen, made to be kept.
