  • Materials:  enameling
  • Metal:  sterling silver plated ear hooks for pierced ears

"The appeal of Zarah's Zarlite jewelry is the fresh, colorful designs by contemporary artists and their translation into jewelry by master artisans in the old-world craft of enameling.  Both design and production expertise are important, but our primary goal is to delight you with jewelry that is just plain fun to wear!" (Zarah Co.)

About the artist:  Living in the Pacific Northwest, artist Sue Coccia is inspired by her deep love of animals.  She has expanded her media into the designing of enamel jewelry which she hopes helps to spread an appreciation for the sanctity of the various species on this Earth.
