CUSTOMER REVIEIW: "Great holiday earrings! Great design and quality! I love them!"

Bronze holly leaves are cut out by hand. They are then hammered and textured to give them a rustic and realistic feel. Layers of black and green patina are added and then brushed around the edges to bring out the luster of the bronze. Leaves are double-clear-coated to help protect patina and reduce tarnishing. 

  • Size: Holly leaf 1 1/4" x 3/4", total length 2 1/4" including handmade sterling silver ear wires.
  • Faceted coral beads on sterling pins.
  • This is a made-to-order item. Made-to-order items ship within 3-5 business days and are made especially for you.
  • All copper and bronze items have a tough, clear, protective coating that helps protect finishes and reduces tarnishing corrosion and oxidation.
  • Each piece is individually shaped, pounded and matched, so there will be very slight variations between each pair.

Evergreens for Yule

Evergreens were cut and brought indoors to symbolize life, rebirth and renewal. They were thought to have power over death because their green never faded, and they were used to defeat winter demons and hold back death and destruction. Because of their strength and tenacity, they were also believed to encourage the Sun’s return.

Christmas Holly

Holly, which represents the masculine element, was often used to decorate doors, windows and fireplaces. Because of its prickliness it was thought to capture or ward off evil spirits before they could enter a home and cause harm. The holly leaves, symbolic of the Holly King, represent hope, and the red berries represent potency.
