Lemon Drop Dangle Leaf Wire Earrings

Cast Bronze, Patina, and Cast Glass

Lemon is an evergreen plant that belongs to the tamily Rutacede which originates from Asia, but can be found in tropical and sub-tropical regions throughout the world today.

The Lemon Drop Collection has been developed in collaboration with the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.

It was inspired by the V&A's Green Dining Room, the world's first museum café, and its fruit panels designed by the firm Morris, Marshall, Faulkner and Co. in 1886. William Morris was a major influence on the Arts and Crafts Movement, which adopted many of his ideals on the value of hand craftsmanship and the maintenance of truth and honesty in the materials of production. His medieval-inspired designs are noted for their remarkable renderings of interweaving flora and tauna, especially fruits and birds. The designs demonstrate depth of tones, richness in colours and graduation of tints.

Handcrafted in Bellmore, New York

Michael Michaud began his career at the prestigious Rochester Institute of Technology's school for American craftsmen, and graduated in 1980. Over the years, Michael has developed his unique and highly recognizable Michael Michaud Jewelry line. He begins each piece by creating a model from natural elements and then transforms these models into his beautiful jewelry collection. Each exquisitely detailed piece is crafted in the USA, using high quality bronze, sterling silver or gold, and various natural stones and pearls, and cast in bronze using the artisan's special lost wax technique.
