I have one pair trimmed in gold paint with gold-filled ear wires, and one pair trimmed in silver paint and sterling silver ear wires.

 

Monsa Lisa (also know as La Gioconda) is a 16th century portrait painted in oil on a poplar panel by Leonardo Da Vinci during the Italian Renaissance. The work is owned by the French Government and hands in the Musee du Louvre in Paris, France with the title Portrait of Lisa Gheradini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo. (source: Wikipedia)

 

These unique earrings are made with standard scrabble tile game pieces. The images are are altered digitally and printed on high quality paper. The image is then attached to the smooth side of a scrabble tile. The image is then sprayed with a protective coating, and then a thick protective glaze is applied.

 

The sides of the tile are hand painted to give it a 'framed' look.

 

The bail on this pair is screwed into the top of the tile.

 

The back of the earrings are random scrabble tile letters, and are not altered.  

 

Each pair is hand-made by Owner/Designer Carla Ekman
