Barrel Earrings



Barrels weave is also known as Double Visions; it is the 2-ring brother of Rhino Snorting Drano, or (RSD).  Yes, that's right.  No, I don't know the origin of the name.  When I do invent a weave of my own, I'll get to name it whatever I want, too:-)

The material is anodized niobium rings; the color way is my mix of various earth tones. The ear wire are of sterling silver with gold filled beads.

The earrings measure about 2 inches long from top of ear wire to the last unit of "barrel", and  1/4 inch wide.

Here are the specs:

Anodized niobium rings are 1.2mm, ID 3.4mm, from C&T Designs.
