These Glass Raspberry Earrings feature my handmade glass red raspberry beads hung on Sterling Silver v-wire findings. The berries are accented by olivine green Swarovski crystals. Like real raspberries, each of my glass raspberry beads has a translucent quality with a soft surface sheen. Every cell of the raspberry has a slight vertical indentation, just as real raspberries do. These beads are hand-formed one cell at a time in the flame of a torch from colored glass. As a result, the color will not rub, flake or chip off, and no two raspberries are exactly alike.
I make raspberries in a both red and golden varieties. The other colors can be seen on the Raspberries Page. To keep the earrings light in weight, I normally use raspberry beads that are about 14mm high. However, I can make them as large as 16mm or as small as 12mm if you prefer.
Alternative earring findings including leverback, post, french wire and screwback are available by special order, usually for the same price. Other raspberry earring variations and matching necklaces can be seen on the Raspberries Page of this site. Raspberry earrings can also be custom made with high-karat gold or platinum findings and accented with handmade glass leaves or gemstone beads.
