These spectacular birds are rising from the ashes in a wonderful flash of color and flames. Handmade in textured brass, the Chickenscratch Phoenix earrings are then antiqued and richly decorated in a deep red enamel. They have swinging tails that are handmade using prismatic plastic sheets in orange and red creating a shimmering effect. Completed with a red glass bead eye and gold filled earwires.

Dimensions: 2" length; 0.75" width
