Mashan Jade and antiqued copper rosebud knot earrings. The intense green Mashan Jade beads have been wrapped with a fine gauge of copper wire which forms a delicate rosebud knot below the bead, then spirals twice around the bead to form a double wrapped neck atop the bead.
The beads are called Mashan Jade which is a trade name given to the material from the manufacturer and isn't actually Jade at all. The beads are a white marble that has been dyed a lovely intense green, which emphasises the orangey brown matrix and swirls in the stone.
Each earring is made from a single piece of wire which has been variously knotted, looped around the bead and wrapped above it in an alternative to a more straightforward headpin.
The earrings are entirely hand crafted and drop 32mm (1¼") overall from the top of my straight drop earwires and the beads are 10mm (0.4") in diameter. They have been antiqued to bring out the textures of the wrapping and all cut ends have been filed smooth for your comfort.
