"Faux-Hoop" Sterling Silver Earwires with wire-wrapped Spinel Rondelles
These earwires are a cross between two styles: traditional french-hook earwires and hoops. They combine the ease of french wires with the rounder, hoop-like shape that is so popular today. The sample photo here shows faux-hoops with 1/2 inch 'circles' and tiny wire-wrapped pink spinel rondells dangling from them. The basic style can be custom made in different sizes with a wide variety of gemstone and/or pearl dangles.
Currently available by custom order - email michon at michondesign.com to discuss specifics. Stones available include green tourmaline, multi-colored spinel, dark red garnet, amethyst, and peridot, as well as a variety of pearl styles.
