Jennifer Behr - Viletta Earrings

The Viletta Earrings are an ode to pansies— derived from the French word pensée ("thought"), these flowers are a token of thoughtfulness, and were used by the Victorians to signify a secret romance. Made in New York in a time-intensive, multi-step process, each individual clay petal is formed by hand, pressed with actual flowers to achieve true-to-life texture, and hand-painted with dimensional hue and intricate details that can only be achieved through this level of masterful handwork. Finished with a delicate crystal pearl, no two pairs are entirely alike— just as in nature.
