The Partenon Earrings


The Partenon Earrings are completely made in silver and mahogany wood.
This piece combines the delicacy of the filigree and the geometrical form of the wood pieces, that ends having the main importance in this pair of earrings.
I started to make the exterior structure of the earrings and then filled the top with filigree.
After the finishes were made, I used mahogany wood to fill the pre-defined places fot the rectangle and the triangle.
The wood figures were finally covered with a translucent resin, so the piece is impermeable.
The filigree technique makes this piece very light and comfortable to use.


Dimensions of the pendant: aproximatly 4 cm x 1,1 cm
