Mosaic Tile Earrings - Yellow Bronze
Statement dangle earrings that read as the antidote to all things ordinary. The piece carries a verdant quality, like an overgrown weathered gate or ancient mosaic. The hand-carved tiles hang and sway from small hooks on the backs of secure posts. These pieces feel like artifacts from a long-lost culture rendered in brutalist visual language and the gestural language of Gustav Klimt. Each pair carries a unique verdigris patina that will continue to evolve.
Cast in yellow bronze using the lost-wax method, each earring begins as a wax model hand-carved at the bench. The post construction sits stable against the ear while the dangling tile catches light with movement. Verdigris patina fills the recessed areas, deepening with wear.

FAQ
How are these different from the Small Mosaic Pod Earrings?
The Mosaic Tile Earrings are dangle-style and larger in scale, hanging from secure post backs to catch light with movement. The Small Mosaic Pod Earrings are flat post earrings designed to sit close against the ear. Same visual language, different wear.
Will the patina change over time?
Yes. The verdigris patina in the recessed pods will deepen with wear, while the high points stay warm and burnished. Each pair becomes more individual to the wearer as the surface settles.
