"Bonfire" Earrings

Imagine a crisp, cool evening. The murmur of conversation. The crackle of a shimmering, shifting fire. The scent of smoke as it wafts into the dusk. That's the feel of this design--festive and unpretentious, pretty without preciosity.

These earrings feature Czech glass in the warm shades of southwestern PA's last November leaves: a rich burgundy red and an earthy amber-orange. Coco-wood accent beads add a rustic touch that contrasts with the luster of "pearls" created with Austrian crystal. Gold-plated brass findings provide the final elegant touches to the look.

Gold-plated earring "backs" are included. (Remember to twist these off and on rather than push and pull them directly.)

Wipe these earrings occasionally and gently with a plain, soft cloth to help maintain their beauty.

Please note: if you like a very lightweight earring, you may want to check out other options. (These are not extremely heavy, but they will swing a bit.)
