Tribute to Women of Craft Black Onyx and Bronze Earrings

It's the perfect transformation. A vintage (c.1940s) brass picture frame featuring delicate & detailed raised bamboo leaves become stylish Arts & Crafts inspired earrings. Black Onyx 6 mm beads accentuate the natural patina. Sterling silver posts with bullet clutch earring backs.

Kate Faulkner (1841-1898) was a maker during the Arts & Crafts Movement who mastered various media and designed patterns for ceramic tile, textiles, and wallpaper. Her gesso furniture designs often featured flora motifs like these engraved earrings repurposed from a vintage 1940's picture frame. The women of this movement often did not receive credit for their work. This series is meant to honor their contribution to establishing a presence for women in handmade craft.
