Amy created this pair of "Amythyst" earrings to go with the "Amythyst" & filigree disk-and-loop collage bracelet, as seen in the 2009/2010 Rings & Things gemstone ad series V. To create buttons instead of earrings, omit the ear wires. The wrapped loop on the back of the filigree can serve as the button shank.
