There is a lovely realism to California Poppy Large Wire Drop Earrings, which translates California poppies into jewelry without smoothing away the details that make the plant itself interesting. Instead of sculpting nature from memory, Michaud works from the real thing. Botanical specimens are used to create the mold itself, preserving the little twists, veins and imperfections that make each design feel alive. Handcrafted in New York, the finished piece has plenty of garden personality without feeling precious. Copper.
