Federico Jimenez-Colossal-Huge-Showstoppers! Hand Made Oaxaca -Sterling / Turquoise - Filigree "Amor Eterno" CLIP ON Earrings
THE EARRINGS:
Fearlessly designed in a breathtakingly "Over the Top" showstopper size, while displaying a seriously romantic and ultra-feminine look inspired by Oaxaca, these earrings are often considered wedding-worthy, yet honestly you can feel like a "Rockstar" any day you wear them. They look absolutely stunning and undeniably sexy on, and thank goodness for artisans like Federico who give statement, oversized jewelry a whole new, elevated meaning!
Called the "Amor Eterno" earrings, the plump, kissing Palomas display exquisite detail with careful stamp work that accentuates their feathered wings and rounded bodies. Much of the ornamentation concentrates on the lower portion, and beyond their generous size, it's this area that gives them their richly ornate character. The crescent arracada bottoms are designed with graceful, fluid lines of lacy filigree, over which the flying doves and floral Sleeping beauty turquoise motifs rest. By adding that sweet touch of turquoise, helps to give then the charm of Santa Fe.
These earrings are not only long, but measure 2-3/8" at their widest point, a substantial dimension that adds to their dramatic, over-the-top appeal and ensures they will hardly not go unnoticed!
Because of Federico's status in the industry, Oaxaca jewelry is now widely known and much sought after since he was one of the first to introduce this distinctive style to a broader audience, helping to put it on the map so it can finally be appreciated as a historical art form.
The look has become remarkably chic — Oaxaca jewelry and especially filigree jewelry, is no longer just worn only with traditional Mexican folk-art clothing or at folk-art events. Today you’ll see these bold, beautiful earrings worn with all kinds of outfits, in everyday settings and on the fashion circuit alike.
