A highly unusual pair of handmade sterling silver earrings with stunning colours. A gold plated leaf is layered over a turquoise patina leaf which sits on a satin finished silver leaf. A patina finish is a green/blue effect produced by oxidation on the surface of the copper. The leaves are joined at the top allowing them to move freely creating wonderful movement.
Earring is 41mm long from top of hook to bottom of satin finished leaf. Gold leaf is 16mm long by 12mm at widest point. Turquoise patina leaf is 24mm long by 12 mm at widest point and largest satin finished leaf is 25mm long by 19mm at widest point.
Guillermo originates from Spain and since childhood has been interested in design and nature. In Taxco he became interested in metalwork and studied for four years with metalsmiths at the Artes Pasticas School in order to sharpen his craftsmanship.
