About Payment:
My shop is set up with PayPal as the payment processor. You don’t need to have a PayPal account to use your credit card or bank card.

14th Anniversary Flower
These gorgeous earrings were made meticulously by first cutting out the petals from a sheet of silver and then shaped and soldered together. The last steps were to sand blast them for texture and the gold petals and stems were given a gold finish.
Since these are handmade each earring is a tiny bit different.
Meaning of Clematis:
The clematis flowers symbolize the beauty of ingenuity and the beauty of mental strength.
I am inspired by nature so you will see quite a few flower pieces in my shop.
I studied to be a goldsmith in Switzerland where I also learned enameling and am well known in Vancouver BC and also my part time home in Sao Paulo Brazil. My pieces have been featured at the Orpheum Theatre and also at the Vancouver Art Gallery.
Although I am retired I am still creating jewelry and you will see more of my pieces for sale every month.
My daughter has her own shop on Etsy. So for more jewellery please come and check out her store:

About Vermeil:
Vermeil ( for those who don't know already ) is a term used to describe when a gold layer is fused to sterling silver. The gold is then many times thicker than plating would be. This is a good choice for anyone with metal allergies if you can wear silver.
Care :
Store all you sterling silver jewelry in plastic baggies to slow down tarnish. If they do tarnish over time, these earrings can be dipped into silver cleaner and they will look brand new again.
Don't let your sterling silver jewelry come in contact with chlorine. It can permanently tarnish silver.
