B2+1 Cross Earrings

A lovely pair of silver color cross earrings, accented with gold color edgings and crystals.


These earrings are made with bright aluminum jump rings to ensure a comfortable wear and free of maintenance.


To define the outer edge of the cross motif, I selected anodized aluminum rings in gold tone, plus silver and gold color Swarovski crystals to echo the overall color scheme.


Each earring measures at 2 1/4 inches of overall length, 1 inch across at the widest portion.



For a little extra on the chainmaille pattern used for these earrings:


The main body of the earrings is constructed in the chainmaille weave called "B2+1".  It is a modern extension based on the classic Byzantine weave.  B2+1 uniquely offers the cross shape a crisp clear form, "plus" a firm hold on the axis.  

A delightful interpretation of less is more.


This item is available for custom order in my online studio DaisyKreates.com.
