I just love the vintage teardrops they are made so much better than the modern day equivalent, they feel much tougher, these were on a long necklace adorned with crystal beads that was given to me to make other pieces of jewellery, they are believed to be from late 1960’s to early 1970’s, apparently beads like this were used to make ornate chandeliers, which I can understand as the colours when the light catches them is unreal.

Full description

These Handmade Vintage Upcycled Earrings are a stunning blend of mid-century charm and modern sustainability.

Each earring features a genuine 10 x 8mm vintage electroplated teardrop bead, thoughtfully upcycled from a necklace dating back to the 1960s or 70s. These focal beads possess a mesmerizing iridescent finish that shifts through a spectrum of deep teals, purples, and golden ambers as they catch the light.

Complementing the vintage teardrops are 4mm electroplated bicone crystals in a rich, dark plum hue. These add a structured, geometric contrast and extra sparkle to the elongated design.

The beads are meticulously tiered on gold-tone pins and finished with high-quality, hypoallergenic gold-plated hooks, ensuring they are comfortable for sensitive ears.

These earrings offer a unique "one-of-a-kind" appeal, perfect for those who appreciate jewellery with a history. Their elegant silhouette and vibrant, colour-shifting properties make them a sophisticated choice for both day and evening wear.
