La Sevillana Earrings in Small
Limited edition, handmade by Annabelle, small gold or silver crochet rings with hand sewn freshwater pearls and varnished 18k gold or sterling silver plated disc studs. They measure 9cm in length and are super light! These earrings take nearly 4 hours of work, stitch by stitch, pearl by pearl, true artisanry.
The gold and silver crochet rings were lovingly handmade by the mother-daughter duoSea & Horse. Charo and Brenda are Galician artisans/designers/women of many talents that are keeping traditional techniques alive. They made all my accessory dreams come true. I would explain to them the design I wanted and they problem solved until we had something even better than I had in mind. They’d send me the crochet pieces and I got to work turning them into earrings and sewing on pearls. To be able to collaborate with them on these special pieces again is such a privilege and pleasure.
La Sevillana is not only the name for a woman from Seville, but it is also a style of Flamenco from Seville. It’s usually the gateway to learning how to dance Flamenco as it’s slower and easier to follow. Every colourful tent in la Feria de Abril is full of swirling Flamenco dresses dancing Sevillanas and it wouldn’t ever be a night out or a family gathering without a few of these danced all together - young, old and everyone in between, even babies are seen twirling their hands as their family spin them around on the dance floor.
In Euros these earrings are valued around 115EUR.
