Bronze Wild Grape Leaf Earrings
Bronze Wild Grape Leaf Earrings - Larger version - Handmade in Austin, Tx - Plant Jewelry - Statement Earrings - made by Jamie Spinello
*Made to Order*
Size: From ear wire to the tip of the leaves, each measure just over 2.15" long.
They are relatively lightweight when worn. (this is the larger of the two designs that I offer)
The Wild Grape (Vitus Mustangenesis) that these leaves were taken from are often mistaken for and crowded out by their close but less flamboyant cousin, the Muscadine. Both are wild grapes that are native to the southern United States, including Texas. Growing up in Mississippi, where vines climb with abundance in every forest, I often came across wild grapes. Upon eating them, I quickly learned that just because they look like grapes doesn't mean they will taste like it. The bitter-skinned fruit from this plant is generally used to make jams, jellies, and wines, but is not the best for eating raw. If you love sour and bitter things, however, you will probably enjoy eating them. I do!

FAQs:
When will my order ship?
If you ordered an item that is "ready to ship" then I generally ship between 1-3 business days after the time of purchase.
If you ordered something that is "made to order" then I will begin production after receipt of payment.
My current production time required for me to make all of my one-of-a-kind items by hand is 2-3 weeks. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via my contact page: http://www.jamiespinello.com/contact.html
All buyers receive order confirmation emails, shipment dispatch email notices and tracking numbers to track shipments. Please check your spam folder for all of these.
I ship US domestic orders via priority mail with tracking and all international orders via first class international which does come with partial tracking.
