Model: Frida Borlas Earrings

These beautiful earrings are hand painted on wood with silk thread tassels. It is the perfect accessory and pop of color for your outfit! Every piece is completely unique because of the detailed process that goes into creating it. The black lacquer is created by mixing in layers of dirt with a grease from the Cochinilla bug. The flowers are painted by finger tips using ground up natural pigments and linseed oil. To finish the process, a protective coat is applied to conserve the painting and give it a shiny look.
