For me, the blue-gray, sometimes veined with white, of these curls is a reminder of the beautiful summer days, on the terrace, with a good glass of chilled Vinho Verde!
It is the glass from this bottle that was used to make the glass pieces in this series of jewelry.
I left the glass matte, to give it that sea-polished glass-like effect.
They are on a lever mount, which closes behind the ear.
The measurement (8, 10 or 12 mm) is for the piece of glass alone, the frame adds 2 mm to the total diameter of the loop).
The gold (8mm) and rose-gold (8-10-12 mm) levers are a little smaller than the silver ones, i.e. the "magnifying glass" that goes into the ear is shorter. The piece of glass is therefore closer to the lobe. Despite their small size, they do just as well to adult ears. See the comparative photo to better understand!
Please note that the color of the frame influences the final color of the jewel. See the Cabochon page for a better understanding, I haven't taken the photos of the levers yet, but it's the same principle.
Each pair is handmade, it is normal that it is not identical to those shown in the photos.

Manufacturing process
Manufacturing process
- Handmade jewelry in Quebec -
Each piece of glass of the jewelry is handmade, in my workshop in St-Denis-de-Brompton (near Sherbrooke)
Each bottle or sheet of new glass will be cut into small squares, with a manual glass cutter. The squares will then be combined according to the result I want to obtain. Everything will be melted between 1500 and 1600 degrees F, depending on where the glass comes from.
Firing the glass takes about 15 hours in total. When the glass pieces are cold, if necessary, the matte finish will be done mechanically, a bit like glass polished by the sea, then they will be assembled on the frames.
As each piece of jewelry is handmade, there may be slight differences between the piece of jewelry shown in the photos and the one you will receive.

The last thing you should wear when getting dressed in the morning is your jewelry. It's also the first thing you should take off at night. Avoid wearing your jewelry in water, they will stay beautiful longer!
You can clean your earrings with rubbing alcohol to remove residue.

If you tend to react easily to your earrings, I strongly advise you to take the silver colored ones. 99.9% of women have no problem with silver colored ones (avoid gold and rose-gold for the first order)
