WEAR A PIECE OF HISTORY!

These sweet earrings are solid stainless steel and have surgical steel ear wires. They measure 3.20" long and are very lightweight (4gr each)and reversible. The silver version has 925 silver ear wires. They will come in a gift box. Vintage brass hoops.

These tiles are located on the facade of a very, very old building in the lovely city of Caldas da Rainha. To my dismay, many old buildings have fallen in disrepair and this is an attempt to preserve a little of the patrimony of Portugal before it's too late.

+ Please note that some of our items will come with a tag stating "Return only accepted if tag is attached". There are no exceptions to this policy.

All my tiles are replicas made of polymer clay where the image actually becomes part of the clay through baking. No glue is used in the process. The pieces become waterproof and scratch resistant. Due to the handmade and hand shaped nature of each tile, slight variations will occur, as no two pieces are alike.

QUESTION: Are your tiles real antique Portuguese azulejo tiles?

ANSWER: Absolutely not. In our description of each item, we try to call attention to the theft and destruction of antique Portuguese tiles. Even the tiles found in flea markets and antique stores were most likely stolen off a building during the night. We have seen entire home facades disappear during the night to thieves. Thankfully, Portugal just passed a law declaring this theft a crime. We can only hope that it will one day be enforced.

For this reason, we have no part in this despicable crime. We make our own tiles from polymer clay. Ceramic would be far too heavy for earrings and impossible to mold into the shapes we want. For the hoops, we mold the clay as thin as we can get it, so that it will look pretty inside the hoops.
