Byzantium Bead Embroidered Earrings

Richly patterned and unapologetically ornate, Byzantium draws on the colour and intricacy of an ancient mosaic.

Vivid turquoise and ivory focal pieces are worked into elaborate bead embroidery, framed with tiny turquoise and metallic beads and crowned with turquoise cabochons and sculptural silver-toned accents. Touches of aged gold and bronze run through the design, giving the earrings a beautifully weathered richness rather than a polished, pristine finish.

At 6.5 cm long excluding the hook and 3 cm wide, these are substantial statement earrings, but their elongated shape keeps them elegant when worn. Dramatic, intricate and entirely individual, Byzantium has the feeling of a small piece of treasure unearthed from somewhere much older.
