Federico Jimenez-Sophisticated Santa Fe'an/Traditional Oaxaca-Creamy Orange Spiny Oyster- "Palomas Enamoradas" Sterling Earrings-3"
These stunning Oaxaca earrings are designed with a undeniable look of Mexico, but have been beautifully taken up a few notches by adding a highly elegant Santa Fe'an touch of sophistication!!
Besides their look, I am in awh over how beautiful this color of Spiny Oyster is! It's not the vivid orange like we normally see, but has more of a 'creamy-rusty orange ' color vibrancy! They are Impeccably made by skilled hands, in an traditional arracada style, where the design starts with a domed hand stamped flower top that has a cab of Spiny Oyster in the center and which moves freely on the wire that is at the top of the crescent shaped arracada drop. On the platform of sterling, sits 2 little kissing love birds that sit at the top & has hand made leaf appliques in the center. 3 cuts of spiny surround the Paloma's. Precise filigree wire sits along the perimeter and acts as the anchor for the 3 elongated tear drop shaped dangles!
Owning a pair of these myself, I have to admit that these are super sexy on the ear & personally are very wearable on the ears. (See weights below for you to decide) These can be worn with a variety of wardrobes, from denim,to designer & best of all, with all your Mexican/Oaxaca clothing!

PLEASE READ BEFORE PURCHASING:
*****I do not consider myself a 'professional photographer" but I do try to give you photos that are 'realistic" in color,just so you're not shocked, nor disappointed when you get the piece. I find photographing anything with 'yellow' in it, (orange, green) can come up a little more vivid than other colors,so please take this into consideration.
In order to give you close up photos so I can provide you with all the detail,can tend to make the item look much more larger & everything is more magnified & exaggerated than in actuality. Close up's make the item look so large & then you get it in hand & you are shocked since the item is much smaller than how they looked in the photos..So to get an accurate idea of how big these are,please either check them out being worn to get a rough idea (photo 2) or you can pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements.
