Circassian Woven Silver Earrings
£80.00
Our Circassian Woven Silver Earrings are a remarkable example of craftsmanship and named after the region where this unusual silver-smithing technique may have originated. The earrings consist of pure silver wire, coiled around silk and then tightly woven sewn around a sphere, in a needle and thread fashion. They are very light and have nice movement.
