The delicate “fruits” of these earrings are hand-formed from anodized aluminum which I have dyed a warm orange, they hang from hypoallergenic niobium wire and are accented by several slender two-toned green leaves that can swivel around the stem.

Bio
I have a love affair with aluminum. Why? Because of its ability to be anodized and dyed a wide range of luminous colors. I thrive on bring the spirit of art and the handmade into everyday life. I make jewelry and small sculptures in my Portland, Oregon studio.
