Cross Culture Arches
A blend of cultural influences in these new earrings with their beaded arches and tribal copper crescent focals. I have strung yellow orange Indonesian beads and teal Czech farfalles on nylon thread to form the contrasting colored arches. The copper clay focal components are from Kristi Bowman; I think of her as my co conspirator. From the copper crescents, I have hung carved bone discs in black and white to complete the tribal theme. I see these earrings as ethnic, but I'm not sure which one (ethnicity), thus the name.

Absolutely gorgeous! I love the design and your idea to blend different cultures.
ReplyDeleteI'm honored you consider me a co conspiritor!! All of these tribal elements blend well together to make one beautiful pair of earrings.
ReplyDeleteLove your design and your colors! The black and white bone discs are a great addition. (And those scarves are breathtaking.)
