Tiny Shamrock Earrings, Paper Quilled Clover

The shamrock is one of the most iconic symbols of Ireland, Irish culture, and St Patrick's Day.  You don't have to be a descendant of the leprechauns and faeries to feel connected to the Emerald Isle when you wear these tiny cutie clovers.  They have been handcrafted from 100% paper using quilling techniques. They are coated in a sealant which makes them slightly shiny, 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. 1/3in x 1/3in (1in 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.
