Retro Pyrex Flower Earrings | Butterfly Gold Pattern

A note from Liz: New in the shop, A Tea Leaf Jewelry makes me happy. From Alisa's nature-inspired designs to the vintage Pyrex-inspired pieces, they hold stories and are simply fun to wear.

Brass earrings feature the flower from Pyrex's Butterfly Gold Pattern that hangs from gold-plated ear wires. Nickel free & lead free.

The original Pyrex pattern was first printed in 1972 and features one large central flower flanked by a leaf, flower, and butterfly on each side on alternating white and yellow gold bowls. A Tea Leaf's jewelry features this same large flower cut out of brass with engraved details for a super cute, vintage inspired look. 

More about the artist, Alissa Thiele, in her words: Ever since I was little, I've loved to make things with my hands. This started out as drawings and paintings, and then lead to majoring in Graphic Design in college. After a few years in the real world, my husband and I (and our cat, Yoshimi) packed up and moved to Portland to be surrounded by music, nature, and amazingly creative people.

The Pacific Northwest immediately began to inspire my artwork. I started creating collage work with found papers & botanical drawings under the name A Tea Leaf. I also got interested in the idea of making my art/designs wearable and began learning about jewelry making. I found that jewelry allowed me to explore art from a whole new perspective. I was addicted! Today, A Tea Leaf jewelry is still inspired by nature and exploring the Pacific Northwest as well as vintage touches.
