As a little girl, my eyes were transfixed on the mermaids at the Weeki Wachee Springs State Park, which is pretty much what a little girl’s dreams are made of with their mermaid shows—ladies donned in colorful mermaid tails holding their breath and doing underwater flips.
The mystical feminine of mermaids is what first drew me to them, but there’s also a freedom and strength in being about to coexist with a sometimes unseemingly powerful force of water. With that in mind, I made my Lapis Reflection mermaid as a talisman for freedom and confidence. These are the earrings that go with that collection.
Details:
-Set in fine and sterling silver
-Stones are hand-carved lapis lazuli and Andean pink opal
-Handmade hinge allows the lapis to swing back and forth
-Drop Earrings measure 1 7/8 x 9/16 in.
-Each earring weighs approx. 4.5g
-Modeled picture for earring scale
-Everything from the stone cutting to the silversmithing is carefully done in my Tampa, FL studio.
