Smithsonian Institution Exclusive
Description
These Japanese tensha bead earrings are a celebration of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation. Handmade in Osaka, each floral design is delicately transferred onto an acrylic bead (tensha means "to transfer") and sealed in a clear lacquer finish that keeps them light and luminous.
Accented with textured gold-tone accents, these earrings bring elegance to any outfit. They're a perfect match with our coordinating Teal Floral Tensha Bead and Turquoise Necklace, but you'll find that they're surprisingly versatile with all your favorite jewelry.
This jewelry item comes packaged in a white box (pictured).
