WEAR A PIECE OF HISTORY!
Conquered in 1147, Lisbon is the lovely capital of Portugal with its old cobblestone roads and beautiful tiles.
These tiles are a replica of beautiful antique Azulejo tiles found on homes, buildings, churches and convents throughout Portugal.
The earrings are 3.20" long and lightweight - 4gr. each. They have stainless steel pendants and surgical steel ear wire. The silver version has a 925 silver ear wire. Vintage brass hoops. They will come in a gift box and they are reversible.
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.
Please feel free to email me with any questions you may have.
Thank you,
Atrio

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.
