Scroll Earrings with large stones.
I was thinking about the 'scroll' as a decorative element and how this crops up in many disciplines. It occurs in ancient manuscripts, illustration, metalsmithing and architecture; notably Ionic columns. This series of earrings was loosely based on the scroll form that might originate from the forge of a blacksmith. Not only is this element useful as a decorative feature to carry the earring's post and ear back fittings but it can also be adapted for use as a chain runner in a necklace or pendant.
Three examples of earrings in 18K gold with the hand rolled Scroll feature.
This provides a decorative element but also has the post fitting on the back.
