Ruby Gemstone Vines, Red and Green Boho Stem Vine Twist Art Earrings with red firefly House of Tor

Dainty and feminine, these pretty Twist Art Vines and Stems earrings are red and green, and created to resemble red roses and each one bears a hand cut faceted ruby!

Yes, that’s right a ruby!  Real ruby, a pretty bright red shade with a slight pinkish hue.  And light passes through them, though they’re not transparent.  I matched them as well as I could with the rubies I have on hand. Woo Hoo!  Handle with care, as the rubies may be oiled or filled but they’re still genuine rubies!  So pretty. 

My precious….

Twist Art was used to create these vines and stems.  People that know me also know that I like odd mixes and things askew, and that I have a tendency to stray from the usual color combinations.  So, welcome back the black, the vines and stems are black to offset the red and green! 

The green seed beads are silver lined and sparkle!  The red seed beads are cherry red Firefly beads. Firefly beads are silver lined colored beads that have a matte or etched finish that makes their color glow from within.

These earrings have been created in a mirror design.  Left and right, or right and left.  Your choice.
Because they are handmade there can be variations in each piece, they can be slightly altered in their shape.
Each vine/stem is twisted in Art Wire.

Earwires are niobium, in Black, of course!

Oh, and did I mention the matching Ruby Vine Statement necklace?  See it here:

Enjoy your rubies! Take care of them.  No chemicals… wipe with a soft cloth. And remember:  gemstones and pearls should be the last thing you put on and the first thing you remove. 

Enjoy!
