Earrings, by Nichola Fletcher

This pair of gold and ebony earrings was made by the Scottish artist Nichola Fletcher in 1985.

Each earring consists of a half-crescent shape of gold inlaid with wedges of ebony. Each dangles from an earwire with a complementary stud and small gold crescent.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
