These enameled earrings feature a snake from the family Colubridae (genus and species unknown).
Ear wires: Sterling silver with small copper ball. Natural patina
Drop length: 1.25”
Each piece is individually fired and rectangular earrings are cut by hand from large sheets of copper. Due to this, please note there may be slight differences between the pair shown and the pair you receive. Also, color is never 100% accurate across computers, TVs, or phones. I’ve tried my best to capture the color using natural lighting whenever possible.
About the piece:
Colubridae is the largest snake family with over 249 genera. Colubrid have found there way onto every continent except Antarctica.
