TRIBAL SUNS - Tribal Sun Handmade Earrings, Red Purple Copper Crystal Handmade Jewelry

About:

Glowing in copper, red and purple, the TRIBAL SUNS handmade earrings are true beauties. The focal of the earrings are individually artisan handcrafted shield charms with a raised rising sun design. The sun’s rays were painted with a background of red; the rays were left their natural copper. The sun itself is a golden orange color. Below the suns are three dots, painted in purple, one set of dots a bit darker than the other. The wave and arrow designs found at the bottom of the shields were left unpainted.

The copper sun shields were carefully wire wrapped to artisan handmade lampwork beads in a rich purple with swirls of lighter purple and a bit of green. Nestled into the top of purple lampwork beads are sparkling coppery Swarovski crystals with flashes of reddish orange, a color called “chile pepper.” A copper bicone was placed above the crystals and everything was wire wrapped on copper wire and connected to sterling silver French hook earwires. A round copper bead was added to the earwires for a perfect finish. The TRIBAL SUNS earrings were carefully designed and handmade by Catherine of Shadow Dog Designs for the woman who adores one of a kind jewelry designs.
