Lysaria: a lagoon, worked in cord.
Rings of braided cord in teal, deep emerald, soft sage and cream wrap around a large round medallion, with rows of small sky-blue beads and glittering green faceted beads set between them. Glossy green cabochon beads sit in the swirling centre, and a smaller top piece in matching cord links the medallion to the ear wire.
The colours move from deep green at the edge to bright teal and creamy white near the centre, so the design looks like ripples spreading across clear water. The cream cord lifts the darker greens, and the pale blue beads add a soft shimmer.
The earrings are large and bold, but they stay graceful because of the layered curves. Each pair hangs from antique brass-tone fish-hook wires and moves gently when you turn your head.
Keep the outfit simple and let these be the statement. They look best with ivory, cream, white, black, soft grey or sand, and they also suit deep green and navy for a rich tone-on-tone look.
