RC-E9-LBD

A long open rectangle in warm brass, its two vertical edges stitched with a black thread zigzag. Small pale beads hang top and bottom — restrained, graphic, more embroidery-on-metal than beadwork.

  • Material: Brass, cotton thread
  • Stones: Labradorite
  • Color: Gold and black
  • Drop: 2.5 in (plus ear wire)
  • Width: 1.0625 in
  • Closure: Fish hook
  • Origin: India

The open cut keeps the drop light despite its scale, so it moves easily as you turn your head. Wear it against a clean neckline and let the black-on-gold contrast and the strict rectangular geometry do the work.
Details
  • Open-cut geometric brass frame
  • Hand-laced black thread zigzag
  • Labradorite bead drops top and bottom
  • Lightweight fish hook ear wire

Each pair is hand-laced and beaded individually, so thread tension, knotting and bead shape shift slightly from one pair to the next.

The Story

The frame is pierced from a sheet of brass — not cast, not stamped — and the edges filed smooth before small holes are punched along both long sides. Cotton thread is laced through those holes in a continuous zigzag, tension pulled even by hand rather than by machine.

The result reads as graphic rather than ornamental: an open geometric window, a stark black-on-gold contrast, and a controlled drop of stone instead of dense beadwork. Each labradorite bead is wire-wrapped and set individually, so every step from frame to final bead is worked by hand.

Craft & Care
  • Technique: Hand-laced brass thread work

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth after wear. Store flat or hanging, away from moisture, lotion and direct sunlight.

Questions

Will these earrings tarnish over time?

Brass can develop a soft patina with wear and air exposure. Wiping them down after wear and storing them away from moisture will keep the finish brighter for longer.

Are these earrings hypoallergenic?

Brass is not nickel-free for everyone. If you have sensitive ears or a known metal allergy, a sterling silver or niobium style is a safer choice.

How heavy are they to wear?

The open-cut frame keeps them lighter than their scale suggests, though the drop length gives them noticeable movement.

Will the two earrings look exactly alike?

They are made as a close match, but because each is hand-laced and beaded individually, small differences in thread tension and bead placement are normal between the pair.

How should I clean the thread detail?

Keep water and cleaning solutions off the black thread. A dry, soft cloth on the brass is the safest way to keep both the metal and the lacing looking sharp.
