A friend recently gifted me a marvelous vintage necklace of handmade paper beads, probably from the 70s or 80s, and I’ve been having SO much fun matching up pairs and finding beads to go with them! These earrings are all about the beads and the color combinations and each pair is totally one-of-a-kind. Since none of the pairs are perfectly identical, I also got to play with subtle asymmetry, which I always love doing - my goal was to make every pair feel very balanced, even if there were significant size differences in some of the beads  

(I use sterling silver french hooks by default, but I also stock titanium and surgical steel french hooks, high-quality silver-plated leverback findings, and two kinds of clip-on earring thingies, and you can upgrade to any of those right over here.)
