These handcrafted, intricately beaded wedding chandelier earrings are by turns romantic and bohemian. They're embroidered with a richly textured mix of handmade lace, vintage crystals, and tiny glass beads. The Venezia earrings' teardrop-shaped pendants, fringed with mother-of-pearl beads, take their inspiration from the gothic architecture of the Doge's Palace in Venice.

COUTURE DETAILS

• The earrings are adorned with lace motifs created entirely by hand in our Vermont, USA, studio using couture lacemaking and bead embroidery techniques

• Small beaded leaves, round lace motifs, mother-of-pearl and freshwater pearl beads, and vintage crystals are embroidered onto the earrings' surface for a richly textured effect

• Large freshwater pearl cabochons elevate the earrings to heirloom quality

• A row of iridescent mother-of-pearl drops swings from the bottom of the lace pendants, adding movement to the design

• The earrings fasten with studs lined with a soft woven backing for extra comfort when worn
