These beautiful glass earrings are inspired by early morning clouds just before the day begins. 

Every piece of Wearing Glass is individually crafted to order, so each pair of earrings will be truly unique. Due to the handmade nature, every piece is different and products may vary slightly from images shown.

Description: 

• Made with aroha in their Auckland studio
• Each piece of glass is hand crafted
• Sustainably sourced silver hooks
• The glass clouds are about 2cm wide, and including the hook also drop about 2cm from the ear. 
• Each wee cloud is unique, with some a little more chunkier than others! 

Wearing Glass by Isla Osborne

For Isla Osborne, Wearing Glass started as a part time creative adventure and has developed into a full time passion for creating hand-made glass works. Each piece of jewellery is totally unique, as every piece is made by sculpting molten glass using a blowtorch powered with oxygen and natural gas, and beads are made one at a time, thus every piece of glass tells a story."Lampworking is an ancient and magical process, with a chemistry that borders on alchemy and as an artist I find its lure irresistible."

Isla lived and worked in London for 10 years, exhibiting internationally before returning to Aotearoa in 2007 to start a family - where the traditional glass studio she works out of is now based, in Grey Lynn. As well as being a family business, the team individually hand-crafts products using techniques that date back thousands of years, and Isla is proud to keep this ancient tradition alive for the next generation of craftspeople.
