Handmade Cilea Bijoux Paris “Petits Pois” Clip-on Earrings

The earrings were handcrafted by Cilea Bijoux in France from emaline, an enamelled resin. Each is in the form of a pair of green petits pois pods and leaves, and includes a brass tendril – one of the pods is open, and the other features three soft-silver acrylic “peas”. The upper section is fitted with a gold-plated clip (for unpierced ears) affixed to a pad on the reverse. The back is marked “Cilea Paris”.

Maison Cilea was established in 1992 in Paris France, when Stephane Ravel, previously an accountant, encountered the artist Monique Vedie and was inspired by the possibilities that the resin from Talosel, a cellulose acetate, offered in the innovative production of costume jewellery. He named the venture after his wife, and today their two daughters Ameline and Ambre continue the Cilea Bijoux adventure in creating fresh, flowery and fun treasures. Each Cilea Bijoux item is handcrafted – slight variations in colour and detail may occur.
