A unique series of jewelry featuring hand-sculpted salvaged paper pieces. Each one-of-a-kind piece boasts a deep purple focal element, embellished with illuminating tones of metallic foil leaf. Configured into unique necklaces or earrings, no two are alike. They incorporate leather cord, chain, beaded strands, and more. The Ripple Bead and Tassel strand incorporates 75 handmade paper mache beads, strung and embellished with a handmade green tassel. The Trance Disc Earrings feature gold posts with specialty gold-plated backs to help the large, lightweight shapes hang properly. The lightweight, easy-to-wear pendants and earrings in this collection are carefully polished and sealed for moisture resistance.
