Each earring was made with an origami folded paper crane in a red, cream, burgundy, white & gold colored Chiyogami Japanese paper, paired with a small red Czech glass bead, hanging from a brass colored fish hook ear-wire. The length of the earring from the top of the ear wire to the bottom of the of the bead is 1.75″. The width of the crane is about 1.75″. The origami cranes were sealed with several coats of sealer and non-yellowing satin varnish to add durability and protect them from moisture. But they are not waterproof, so do not submerge the earrings in water, or wear them to go swimming or taking showers. Crane symbolizes longevity, good fortune and fidelity. This pair of earring is a perfect gift for birthday, graduation or bridal shower.
