These delicate earrings have been made using original vintage book pages and illustrations taken from material dating around 1800. The illustrations used are of vines and this has been combined with sterling silver handmade pins and complimented with the addition of two fresh water seed pearls. The sterling silver earring fitting and pin have been finished with an oxidised patina. The drop length is taken from the top of the ball stud to the bottom of the earring.

Cleaning Instructions
Clean only silver items using a specialist silver cleaning cloth. Do not dip oxidised items into silver cleaning solution as this may damage the patina. A protective seal has been applied to the book pages, however due to the nature of the material the appearance may change over time. To prolong the life of this work, please wear and store away from wet and damp conditions.
