These eco-friendly paper quilled earrings are made from 1/8" thick paper in complimentary shades of dark and light blue. They are teardrop shapes with filigree coils in the center. The bottom teardrop of the pink earrings have a lovely filigree heart embellishment (please send me a note if you would like the heart embellishment on the blue earrings). They would be a thoughtful gift for a first anniversary when paper is traditional for gift giving. They are coated in a sealant which makes them water resistant and UV resistant. They are super lightweight. Plastic safety backs are included. Can be converted to clip-on earrings for un-pierced ears or to ultra hypoallergenic niobium hooks for sensitive ears. Sterling silver hooks also available.
All jewelry items will arrive in beautifully packaged boxes wrapped with a ribbon and optional gift tag, ready for giving.
Dimensions: Approx. .75in x 2in (2.25in including hook)

What is quilling?
Quilling is also known as paper filigree. It is an ancient art form that involves curling, rolling, looping, scrolling and coiling thin strips of paper into various shapes for decorative and artistic purposes.
All of my quilled paper jewelry is what I like to call "rain or shine", as I carefully hand-paint each piece with a sealant that makes it water resistant and UV resistant. This sealant also provides a sturdiness to the paper which makes it just as robust as "regular" jewelry. I do not recommend swimming in or sitting on your quilled paper jewelry :) but it is suitable for everyday wear. As with all precious jewelry, careful storage of your paper jewelry is also advised.
