Reminds me of the Land of Smiles
I was fortunate enough to visit Thailand on vacation once and I fell in love with country. When I saw these earrings they reminded me of the roof lines of many of the temples. The earrings are lightweight and very well made. I wear them often . Each time I pull them out of their pouch, I smile thinking about the beauty of Thailand.
I own two pairs of these! I grow them too.
I liked these earrings so much and the price point was so reasonable that I bought a second pair on sale. I know that there is a real leaf encased in the plating, so if the first pair wears out I will have another one ready. I know exactly what leaf this artist chose to preserve: Dischidia ruscifolia, a vining relative of the Hoya family which is very popular among plant collectors. I do grow this plant along with many Hoyas. A hanging basket overflowing with this Dischidia's vines appears as thousands of tiny green hearts, and gives rise to the common name of the "thousand hearts vine." I own several pieces of jewelry from this artist and these earrings are of the same high quality construction as his other work.
