Delicate lace earrings, ruby fuchsia flower earring wine color, romantic Mediterranean fashion, silver stud floral lace

Although it may look a little like crochet or tatting, these beautiful earrings are actually made of hundreds of tiny knots, each made one-at-a-time with needle and fine silk thread.

Every mm is original and handmade, no machine is involved. It’s just me and my needle. It took hours with a great care as well as years of experience. I used an ancient lace technique that dates back thousands of years. It's sort of embroidery, needlepoint or "knot stitch", but far more intricate than those.

Here is THE HOW :::::::::::: Each knot starts by taking a stitch, wrapping the front and back end of the thread around the needle so that it will create a knot when pulled taut, and then pulling the thread through to complete the stitch while controlling the tension and placement of that knot with fingers and eyes.

It is so tedious… takes years to master... but so worth it …

After years of practicing, I managed to produce an incredibly DELICATE looking yet very DURABLE lace. In contrast to the ordinary lace, my creations stay in their original appearances even after hand washing. They also maintain their shape and don’t be deformed as you are wearing them on.

Besides its special technique what makes my lacework unique is its sophisticated appearance. These handicrafts are the symbols of elegance. And they are great choices for adding a touch of nature to your style !..

ALL ITEMS ARE MADE TO ORDER. PLEASE ALLOW 4 - 7 DAYS FOR PRODUCTION.
