Triple Drop Earrings

Handcrafted by Susan Fleming of Jackson, Wyoming. Fleming is the founder of Workshop, her working studio and retail space featuring unique, handmade items.

Chiyogami paper is set in sterling silver and protected with a waterproof resin.

Each unique segment of the earring is from a different sheet of Chiyogami.

Japanese Chiyogami were originally developed in the Edo period as woodblock prints and were used to brighten the interiors of farmhouses. They are hand silk screened, and Susan carefully extracts a scene from each ornate sheet of Chiyogami to create the earrings.
