FEDERICO JIMENEZ- Ornate "EL JARDIN" Coral Beaded-925 Oaxaca Filigree Earrings

Description

THE EARRINGS:
Called
"EL JARDIN"
(The Garden),these are one of Oaxaca's 5 most popularly made earrings that are known for the "Bow" in the design & are the most elaborate out of the 5 & are also  the closest  in style that came out of the 18th century..This style is also very intricate in workmanship.
These are made in a 3-tier style that contributes to their just over 3" length..I am a huge fan of this style of Oaxaca earring & especially when they're filled with an abundance of beads,which give them such a beautiful & traditional presence..These have the perfect balance between metal & coral beads.
It's in the 2nd tier where a lot of the design happens,since there are a total of 6 little flowers that are used for accents & really give a sweet addition to the overall design.(see photos) That is the one difference in these,compared to other Jardin earrings..You normally don't get all those little flowers like you have with these & that is what helps to make these appear more ornate. You can see all the work in these that are shown in the photos that validates the "hand made factor"! They are very wearable in weight,while offering a fantastic look!!!
*****Please Note: With filigree,you are not paying for the weight of the silver nor the materials,but rather the time!!*****

In order to give you close up photos, pictures can tend to make the item look much more larger & more magnified than in actuality.Close up's can make the item look even larger & then you get the item in hand & say,"it looked much larger in the photos!"So to get a accurate idea of how big these are,please pull out a tape measure & compare to my given measurements..
If you find the item is not as great as I think it is,it does not mean the item is 'not as described'!
