These origami rose stud earrings have been made using paper taken from an old copy of The Well of Loneliness, a book that caused such an outcry when it was first published in 1928 with it's description of a lesbian love affair and a central character called "Stephen" who is a woman that it was then banned for several decades. Although some of the language used grates on readers today and the fact that it is not an especially well written novel it is one of great significance. Every pair of earrings will be individual and slightly different as each is individually hand folded and made from a different section of the text.
The paper has been given several coats of varnish which strengthens it as well as enhancing the beautiful light golden colour of the vintage paper.

Details:
The paper used in the earrings has been given several coats of good-quality waterproof varnish to add shine, strength, durability and water resistance.
The earrings come on sterling (925) silver studs.
They will come in a paper envelope tied around with jute or raffia packed safely inside a Post Office approved box.
They come with a certificate of authenticity to guarantee the book used.

Add an origami greetings card with your message handwritten inside for £2.00, includes gift wrapping and tag.
