Mini Gold Dipped Lace Heart Earrings

Bring a sweetly romantic statement to your ensemble with Tulianna and Alejandra Garces's heart-shaped earrings that combine the timeless qualities of lace and gold. Through an intricate process that can take several days, Colombian artisans transform lace into stunning, finely detailed jewelry. The process is entirely done by hand: pieces of lace are cut and sewn, dipped in wax to seal and reinforce them, then in a layer of copper, and finally in 24k gold. The piece is then brushed by hand, clearing every void of the lace from excess metal to preserve its subtle detail. Finally, a lacquer is brushed onto each piece to protect its delicate beauty. The resulting pieces are glittering tributes to the traditional art of lacemaking, and gorgeous statements to add to your collection. Handmade in Colombia.
