This unique and powerful design of hammered hoop earrings came out of a session in my studio, when the flattened gold filled material had been accidentally folded on both sides.
The gold filled was flattened and created a rustic, ancient look that would’ve blended beautifully when the Aztecs were once in power.
The elegance of the carnelian and pearl add a hint of romance and purity, and give a lovely contrast to the gold, that was once so coveted and thought to be held by the Aztec people.
