Nykteris Wing Large Swoop Earrings with Soft Spikes

$82.00

Shipping to United States: $6.00



"Nykteris" is a deliberate misspelling of the genus Nycteris (sorry but the letter K is cooler than the letter C), which is a family of slit-faced bats (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slit-faced_bat). The thin, elongated shapes of the black rubber are reminiscent of bats stretching their wings as they hang from cave roofs or tree branches.

Made carefully layered segments of hand-cut rubber, these eye-catching earrings are inspired by the growth patterns of plants and animals. Each piece is lovingly hand made; as in the natural world, no two are exactly alike.

Rubber over an aluminum armature. They are durable, yet extremely lightweight! Pieces are approximately 4 1/2 inches long. Ear wires in the first photo are are hypoallergenic surgical stainless steel, and unlike silver, will not tarnish. Sterling silver ear wires (modeled in the third photo) are also available upon request.

Pricing is for one pair of earrings.

1. surgical steel hook
2. sterling silver hook
3. sterling silver threadchain
4. gold (by Custom Order request only, pricing may vary--contact for details.)
5. leverback
6. clip-ons
