I am a mathematician who likes playing with beads, and so I thought it would be fun to try making earrings that worked using powers of 2; as you go down, the number of bugle beads doubles at each level. I found a very neat method of construction in which (apart from finishing off the ends) the thread passes exactly twice through each bugle bead, once in each direction. I was delighted with the resulting fractal effect, which has been likened to coral.

Safety information

All the earwires I use are certified nickel-safe, lead-safe, and cadmium-safe. However, these are large earrings, and so they are not recommended for anyone under the age of 16.

Full description

Coral-like branching earrings which were featured on the front cover of Spoilt Rotten Beads' online beading magazine (issue 21, June 2025). Normally every pair is unique, but I am happy to do custom orders, including matching sets for your bridesmaids to complement their outfits. I can also do clips in either gold or silver finish. The earwires are all nickel-safe, lead-safe, and cadmium-safe.
