TED MUEHLING has always been a poet with his jewelry and objects. He casts a mood over his work, and it exudes his special personality, his voice, his visions. He tells his intensely personal story in a pair of earrings like these GNARLY BRANCH twisted and tortured dark branches, in a deep DARK-BARK bronze patina, with multiple little seed shapes dangle like the occasional leaf. DESCRETLY soldered into the back a 14k spring wire for threading through the ear.
