LEARN ABOUT ROY IN THE ‘ABOUT THE ARTIST’ DROP DOWN

Just in from Taxco by an artist I am very proud to bring to you & that is the jewelry by Roy Nilson who happens to be the talented brother of my dear friend "Maria Belen Nilson" who happens to be a talented artist that I also carry! (See listings)

These well executed earrings were made with perfection! It's obvious that Roy used one of his top filigree masters to make these well designed earrings..They have a perfect circular wire form & with each twist & curve of the wiring,they are made with precision.This is art that not all jewelers can do,but with a little mathematics & know how,the design will come out perfect.

Having a Spanish Colonial look,these are made with a obvious square form & taking from this form,the flourishing twisted wire filigree acts to frame it, as to put the focus on the center's design.The base is all hand made for the tiny hand sewn garlands of beads to sit in. Outside these sewn beads the wire is given a ‘diamond cut’ technique for a tad of faceted sparkle..Has a shepherds hook wire back with latch for safety.

Perfect for the woman who loves ‘All things Mexico” & are well worn with a Mexican textile wardrobe,but can look as elegant with a sexy designer dress! Because of the fine lacy wire,gives these to have a very wearable weight & no doubt might be a great "Go-To" filigree earring for you!

Please Note: With filigree,you are not paying for the weight of the silver nor the materials,but rather the time!! Filigree is a time consuming process that many Filigree artists now have stopped doing, because the time that goes into it & the money the artist ends up getting,does not balance.It is a art that truly needs to be appreciated!
