ESPIRITU SANTOS EARRINGS


These two beautiful antique sterling silver Saint Esprit doves were listed to Metal Corset II but expired, so I turned them into earrings.

The one on the left is an antique Georgian sterling silver paste dove with round garnet (?) cabochon eyes, and the one on the right, an antique Victorian sterling paste dove.

Both were brooches once but have now been converted into one of a kind earrings.

Both the dove and cross hang from a hand forged sterling silver earring hook.

Art Deco Sterling Silver Saint Esprit Dove


This is one beautiful piece. It's an Art Deco sterling silver paste brooch measuring 2 3/8" x 2". Such a stunning bird with amazing detail. I have already created in my mind's eye an assemblage I will be using it in. Keep a weathered eye on Metal Corset for its debut.

TINY LITTLE STERLING SILVER PASTE DOVE




I love these sterling silver Saint Esprit doves with paste stones. I just can't get enough of them. This one in particular is very rare as it has a paste stone set on the top of its head and also one dangling from its beak. Exquisite! I can't get over the quality of craftmanship that goes into these tiny treasures. It's astounding. These doves represented, "I will return."
