Weathered Glass Earrings

A 1905 Parisian opera house chandelier's shattered globes.

This pair of earrings was reborn from the remnants of a 1968 railway carriage lamp, its metal components salvaged and reworked into delicate, curved forms. The original glass lenses have been repurposed as the earrings' focal points, their weathered surfaces now showcasing hand-painted, swirling patterns in shades of indigo and cobalt. Suspended from silver findings, the earrings evoke the quiet beauty of a summer storm.
