Beaded hoop earrings handwoven bead-by-bead in turquoise, brick red, and purple glass beads. Colorful, lightweight teardrop hoops with subtle texture and movement.

The Design

These beaded hoop earrings are a celebration of color. Turquoise, matte metallic brick red, and purple-lined aqua luster seed beads are carefully stitched onto antique silver-plated brass hoops, creating a vibrant arc of texture and movement. Faceted Czech fire-polished beads in saturated lilac and neon blue add depth to the design, while small silvertone brass cube beads  provide small flashes of light along the curve of the hoop. The result is a layered color story that feels lively, and balanced.

Craftsmanship

Each earring is carefully handwoven using ultra-strong FireLine thread and 141 tiny seed beads (282 per pair), Czech glass beads and silvertone brass cubes. The beads are stitched one by one along the frame, wrapping the hoop in layered color and texture. Pattern by The Pacific Thread, handwoven by me.
