Oaxacan Filigree Fabric Flower Earrings - Teardrop Red

Beautiful Filigree Earrings are hand-made by the Artisans of Oaxaca. 

Filigree is a technique that dates 3000 yrs. BC was brought to Mexico by the Spaniards in the 1500s.  It has literally - spun - diverse cultures around the world.   

This piece combines the Filigree talents of Oaxacan goldsmiths with handmade fabric flower tassels. 

Filigree: Each piece is meticulously created out of copper wire and spun into a beautiful lace design that is then dipped in a thin veil of 22-carat gold. Over time they will develop a distinct patina.
