Persian Minakari Earrings, Royal Blue Mina and Turquoise retailer Beads Lightweight Clay Middle Eastern Arab Lebanese Islamic Jewelry

These gorgeous handmade clay earrings are lightweight. The Persian/ Arabic calligraphy gives them a lot of character. I cut the rectangular shape out of clay, emboss them with random letters which say nothing, but show the beauty of the written language, add Beads and then bake them. I hand cut these shapes, therefore they are not perfect but an organic shape. I do that deliberately to give them a rustic and distressed look, as if they fell off of a mosque wall like a tile. Years ago I bought a pair of similar earrings when I visited the Middle East, but they are real gold. With gold prices so high, I want to bring this kind of jewelry retailer to you for a fraction of the cost of real gold. These are just as fun. The posts are surgical steel and the backs are gold plated. The cloisonne beads are vintage, the light blue bead is turquoise and the dark blue ones are glass. The last picture shows multiple earrings which are listed separately in my shop. Please see below.

This listing is for one pair of clay earrings, photo props are not included.
