This method of creating miniature artworks is done by layering specially blended pearlescent polymer clays, and layering inks, mica powders, silver leaf and translucent clays.<\/span><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">The leaf shapes are cut one at a time from the art sheet, baked and then sealed with a resin layer to create depth and a high shine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">This polymer piece is accentuated with a carefully hammered copper disk, as well as hand wrought earwires made of the precious metal Niobium&#8230; stunning AND hypo-allergenic! The components are cold joined using handmade copper rivets, giving the earrings a true artisan look.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">These earrings hang gracefully from your earlobe at just under 3 inches (7cm) in length and at 2 1\/4 inches (5.5cm) in width.
