Eco Macadamia Shell w/Swarovski Crystal Cabochette & Seed Beads Dangle Earrings

These Eco-Friendly earrings are a real conversation piece, made from the shell of a macadamia nut. The shell is extremely hard so has to be drilled to make our jewelry and keeps them from the trash bin. Our dad planted the tree in the late 50s and it has grown to dwarf the house by several feet. If you are at all familiar with macadamia nuts, you know how labor intensive they are to crack (you need a vice) and why they are so expensive. The squirrels love them too and have no problem getting the nut out, leaving no trace it was ever there. So, whoever gets there first, us or the squirrels, gets the nuts but they do leave the shells for us to gather for our unique jewelry.

These macadamia shells make interesting and unusual jewelry, designing them into works of art and fun to show off. There are yellow seed beads alternated with Swarovski bicones in shades of hot cocoa. The stem is wire wrapped in gold wire, with a spiral at the top and gold seed beads draping down the front. Dangling at the end is a beautiful Gold Shadow Swarovski Cabochette, dancing about as you move. The dangling earrings are 2 1/2" in length, lightweight and have a gold plated ear post with a clear ear clutch. They are just SO SASSY!
