These sweet little post earrings feature a wild rose with 18K gold highlights.

The flowers were hand-sculpted using the ancient sculpting techniques of Chasing and Repousse. Small, specialized tools and thousands of hammer blows to push and form the metal, either from the front of the piece to add texture and detail (chasing) or from behind to create depth (repousse). This work is done free hand, beginning with a flat sheet of metal, and no molds, stamps or machines are used in the process, making each piece truly one of a kind.

These sterling silver earrings are about 3/4 inches long. There are 18K gold accents in the middle of each flower.
