Large Handmade Resin Cilea Paris “Pomerole” Earrings

The pair of large earrings were handcrafted by Cilea Bijoux in France from emaline, an enamelled resin, and lurex. Each one features a lower section featuring two opaque, textured, blue leaf shapes, and a translucent berry shape in a deeper blue shade. This is hinged by a gold-plated brass link to an upper section in the form of two similar leaf shapes. At the rear of this is an earring pin and stabiliser. The earring pad 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.
