Life is like a bowl of cherries to you. A little sweet, a little tart. Sometimes bright and racy, sometimes deep and tender. Delicious. This updated hoop is the perfect companion to your youthful, playful and carefree moods. Just keep the makeup minimal yet sultry and maybe a little '60s retro for a charming yet not-too-sweet look. Plump cherries large and small whose silhouettes are subtley hammered to catch light and shadow as you move. One cherry has a pit of a different shade.Handcrafted. Silver with one gold-filled pit. Gold-fill can last a lifetime unlike gold-plating which wears down to expose the metal underneath. It is a 14k gold overlay made by heat and pressure-bonding the layer to a brass core. This piece is made by hand by forging, soldering and hammering. 2.5 L x 1.75 W FROM THE DESIGNER: At an early age I was always drawn to art whether it was drawing, painting or just creating something out of nothing. I started making jewelry at age 15 and realized that nothing came close to the thrill, fulfillment and accomplishment I felt when someone wore a piece of jewelry I created. I studied metalsmithing to learn the process of forging, soldering and texturing metal both silver and 14k gold - everthing is done freehand to ensure originality and uniqueness. I'm inspired by everything that surrounds me - the pattern on a single leaf or an 18th century painting. It's difficult to put my jewelry in a category because anything can influence any piece at any moment. But, a couple of traits that are consistent in my work are beautiful organic silhouttes and fine detail. I never know exactly what I'm about to create, it tends to evolve on its own. If my jewelry brings out the beauty and joy in anyone who it may adorn, I know that I've chosen the right path. Enjoy!

Aid was born at Quincy, Illinois in 1872. From the St. Louis School of Fine Arts he went to Paris for study at the Julian Academy. He lived in Europe, first in Paris, then in Bordighera, Italy, for a total of fifteen years. He was visiting in the US when WWI broke out; he never returned to Europe. He settled in the artists community of Tryon, NC. He owned and operated a vineyard there for eight years, painting all the while. In the 1930s Aid was invited to teach and work in Charlotte; over a two-year period prior to the onset of heart trouble, he made a major impact on the city's emerging art community. Aid's art was exhibited in Boston, Chicago, and the Paris Salon. He took a silver medal at the 1904 St. Louis world's fair and a bronze medal at the 1915 San Francisco exposition. At the time of his death he was one of the most respected artists in North Carolina and the South.
