Estate Bluma project beaded earrings. These beautiful Estate earrings are made of beads and gold filled wire. Featuring beautiful turquoise, coral and gold beads. These stunning earrings are no longer available with Bluma Project, a culturally inspired -globally minded company based in Brooklyn , NYC jewellery and accessory company which began with a passion for global influence on contemporary design and love of hand- crafted work. In the last 3 years , blame has fostered strong relationships with women's producer groups in East and West Africa, Peru and the Philippines where the collection is made.
The companies founder, Beth Schaeffer, has successfully worked as a designer throughout her career in New York City and is supported by other designers m buyers, sellers and editors. She has travelled extensively to source design , and specifically to Rwanda, Ghana, and Peru to train in advanced jewelry making skills.
The result is intricate, bold, beautiful jewelry, textiles and accessories: inspired by her travels, but with modern aesthetics that appeals to the fashion customer. Having these pieces produced brings authenticity to the work and helps to build sustainable income for the artisans practising their craft.
These particular earrings are one of my favourite early designs from the company. Stunning when worn with indigenous inspiration, they would make a perfect gift or addition to any jewellery collection.
