Cottontail Roadkill Earrings

These rabbit head earrings are inspired by the little animals surrounding my rural home that have gotten caught by cats or foxes, only to have their body parts hoarded like treasure and left at the doorstep or strewn around the yard. The earrings feature a mixture of red beads spilling out from the enameled rabbit heads, adding movement and beauty while also depicting blood. The pearl option also has tiny freshwater pearls mimicking maggots starting to crawl their way out. oblong pearl and pearl option materials: enamel, watercolor enamel, freshwater pearls, glass beads, seed beads, copper, sterling silver, thread no pearls option materials: enamel, watercolor enamel, glass beads, seed beads, copper, sterling silver, thread length: 2 7/8" width: 7/8" *The earwires are sterling silver *I hand-paint each individual piece of my jewelry with enamel. The pearls I use are freshwater and thus each one is slightly unique in shape. With these things in mind, please understand each pair of earrings may have slight differences from the pair pictured.
