Love Poetry clip-on earrings (silver clips)

These are from the Love Poetry range, which swiftly followed the Newsprint collection. Made by collaging sections of hand written 19^th century romantic poetry (invited friends to do this, they were not original!) to make a silk screen. The old style process! Dye resists have been screenprinted onto the nylon. Each part has been twice dyed by hand, so the text is coffee-coloured with graduated sepia edging. It has a fine matt surface on both sides similar in appearance to frosted glass as the nylon has been glass-bead blasted (a similar process to sand blasting but much finer). The silver earclips are soldered onto a brass cast unit held within the Love Poetry nylon top section. The small cast unit has a raised heart.  Drop 8.5 cm widest 4.2 cm
