Called Hanging, the pieces are made of wire with little figurines attached that appear to be climbing up or resting against the metal wire.

Here's a tiny bit of text from Botelho:


Name: Hanging
Typology: Earrings

Concept

Hanging is a collection of earrings which takes advantage of a silver wire hook as the main element to tell a story. By using miniature figures hung on the wire, it becomes possible to create imaginary scenarios, where for instance, a climber uses a rope to ascend, or a sportsperson uses a pole to rest.
