Jewelry design process - My way

So that's how it looks when a jeweler can not decide on the design of a jewel, in this case earrings. I wanted to create two pairs of earrings: one made from small gold leaves and another with Coral of Sardinia beads in natural red/orange colors. Here's the process (all the jewelry in the photographs are made of 14k gold):

Earring 1 - small leaves

Earring 2 - small leaves with added Sardinian Coral beads and different earwires

Earring 3 - small leaves, took off the beads. Last version (meanwhile!) 

Earring 4 - Sardinian Coral beads in a small cluster. Last version (meanwhile!)
