Medium Silver Pointed Teardrop Cactus Earrings

$ 145.00

Jewelry handmade from prickly pear cactus fiber. Each piece is made using a solid metal copy of dried cactus fiber.

These handmade cactus fiber earrings are an modern interpretation of my prickly pear cactus jewelry. The framed pointed teardrop shape is inspired by Moroccan arabesque tile, and the cactus pattern really pops in these silver desert earrings.

Size

These cactus skeleton earrings are just under 2″ long; length taken from the top of the earwire.

Materials

These eco - friendly medium pointed teardrop cactus skeleton earrings are solid sterling silver, made with 100% recycled sterling silver.

Cactus earrings are lost wax cast from the actual woody skeleton of the prickly pear cactus.

Story

This handmade cactus jewelry is made using actual Prickly Pear cactus skeletons (skeleton closeup shown). Using the lost wax casting process, each piece is a solid metal replica of a section of cactus skeleton.

Lila Clare Jewelry has been making unique jewelry from the dried cellulose skeleton of the prickly pear cactus since 2010.

Medium Silver Pointed Teardrop Cactus Earrings

$ 145.00

Jewelry made from the desert

Each cactus piece is handmade using a lost wax casting process.

  1. I choose section of dried prickly pear cactus fiber (yep, the dried cellulose from inside the cactus).
  2. I make a mold of that piece of cactus fiber, then pour silver or gold into the mold.
  3. The result is a solid metal copy of the cactus fiber, which I then made into a unique piece of jewelry.

artisan made

Hi, I'm Clare, owner and maker of Lila Clare Jewelry. I make each piece of jewelry from the actual dried fibrous skeleton of the prickly pear cactus, resulting in artisan jewelry made in and from the southwestern desert. I have been making these unique jewelry pieces from the cactus skeleton since 2010.

I received the medium pointed teardrop cactus earrings for Christmas...these earrings are beautiful...they are just the right length (for me), they are substantial but not heavy and they go with everything...I'll be wearing these for a long time...
