Pure Filigree Hoops by Damar Filigree

These earrings are reminiscent of something your grandparents may have brought back from a trip to South America or Spain in the 1960s. They are all filigree - and incredibly beautiful.

The filigree in Damar's work is done in Mompas, Colombia where the delicate threads of filigrana momposina are intertwined to form their intricate designs. This technique passed down through generations, is a testament to the skill and patience of the momposino artisans. Each piece of filigrana momposina is a work of art that reflects the rich biodiversity and landscapes of Mompos.

Sterling silver post earrings with 950 sterling silver to achieve fine filigree thread thicknesses.

Approximately 1" in diameter.
