FEDERICO ~ Fabulous ~ Oxidized Sterling Large Sacred Heart Hand Tooled Earrings
FEDERICO ~ Fabulous ~ Oxidized Sterling Large Sacred Heart Hand Tooled Earrings
These have a very undeniable look of Mexico & are stately Oaxaca earrings that are very ‘signature’ Federico!
Totally made by the hands of artisans under the direction of Federico & personally have to be one of the better Sacred Heart earrings I have seen! I am in love with these!! They have a mouthwatering darkened oxidized finishing that lends to their “Old Oaxaca” style appearance. No need for colored stones,they are perfect the way they are!
The Sacred Heart is made with a domed repousse center heart,so there is a ‘heart within a heart’ design. They are taken a notch up with stamp work that fills in the circular perimeter edges,as well as on the flame at the top.
The ear part is a gloved hand that gives these their that Mexican look! The sterling is not flimsy but rather a gauge of sterling that is not bendable,but yet being wearable..
No doubt that these may be the ones you will grab any time you you want the look of Mexico! Will compliment a vintage Mexican collection of jewelry & are perfect when worn with a Mexican textile wardrobe!
I carry a vast inventory of Federico's jewelry & every once in awhile,I come across a piece or two where the item goes through without his hallmark.These will come with a JF hallmark tag & I not only guarantee these to be his,but sterling as well!!
