Orders Faux amber earrings

The focal on these lovely earrings are a couple of Tibetan decorative capped faux amber beads. orders

The ‘amber' beads are capped with a thin, decorative layer of silver coloured metal. They are married with tiny turquoise beads and a couple of little vintage Afghani tribal silver dangles.

I've made the ear hooks of sterling silver wire.


Most of the little tribal silver ‘bits' I use come from various dealers of tribal silver around the world. I've been ‘making' many years now and have met many traders and dealers in person or through the wonders of the internet. These little beads and pendants started life as much more elaborate pieces of jewellery and have been broken down over the years to their individual elements. It's always wonderful to see old pictures of pieces in their entirety and see how the little dangles or beads you have were originally used.

Being vintage, these bits often have marks or are not perfect. It's all part of the life they lived before making it to my studio, and does not detract from the overall effect.
