NEW Vintage Filigree Tin and Swarovski Crystal Earrings!

WELCOME!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today I am introducing my latest creation; these handmade 

earrings which are unique & one-of-a-kind.

Filigree tin design I have carefully hand cut from vintage
tin. The edges have all been filed nice and smooth, and
then hand oxidized to a nice deep brown/black rustic patina
to give them an antique look.
The finish has been polished with Renaissance wax which
freshens the color, and imparts a soft sheen for lasting
preservation.

I have added a touch of accent with genuine faceted
Briolette Swarovski Crystal in fuchsia; which have been fire
polished and capped with filigree bead caps.
They are stunning!

Handmade oxidized raw brass ear wires. However, I am
happy to replace them with oxidized .925 Sterling Silver.

Complete length including ear wires: 2.3/8"

*Packaged in a handmade; decorative recycled paper gift box.
Paper & ribbon designs vary.

Please contact me if you have questions.

Thank you! ~ Cheldena

Hello!

It's time for another update. I have been very busy working on many new ideas and also my new shop header! Check it out here: www.cheldena.etsy.com.

It reminds me of a slope of snow or sand on the left where my logo is; and on the right a mountain side with many different shades of color of representation and expression, which I am hoping is reflected through my artwear.

I have made a few new header versions which I plan to use for the different seasons!

 

I am also introducing a new line of jewelry!

As much as I love working with real patina, I also enjoy creating a patina look by using gorgeous Gilder's Pastes.

Here's an example of an item I have created:

This pair I have painted with Gilder's Paste in the colors of Patina, Verdigris, and black. The gorgeous Czech glass beads match perfectly. I used hand aged raw copper to accent & match the beads.

If you would like to see more including real patina creations, you can find a nice supply in my etsy shop: www.cheldena.etsy.com, and website: www.cheldena.com.

Thank you for visiting!
