An eclectic combination of beads come together to create this simple yet interesting and eyecatching pair of earrings.
A glass cats head, a metal cloisonne and a glass ruby pear shaped facet all combine perfectly to make this quirky pair of earrings.
The earrings were assembled with head pins and jump rings. The pear facet has a triangle link which was made using a long headpin or you can even use brass wire - you may need to practice making these. A spacer was used at each end of the cloisonne bead - a jump ring could also be placed to sit at each end.
