Hello and welcome to my origami earring blog! My name is Lua Ton.
My sister and I are proud to have launched our new origami jewelry line this past weekend (June 7, 2008) in Denver at Bliss Salon during a fundraiser for Terra Wellness Center in support of breast cancer survivors!
Many pictures from that day are posted here by request of many attendees.
Wonderful surviors below. "Yes I'm a survior!"

So here is a little bit of information about our earrings:
*Hand folded with love and attention
*Japanese Washi paper
*Sterling Silver
*Beads at the bottom of posts for extra sweet touch
*Laquered for moisture resistance (hold up for years of enjoyment with proper care--so don't go scuba diving in them okay!) :-)
*Light weight and fun to wear!
My sister Khanh and I have made our own origami earrings for several years now and have sold them exclusively in our two retail fashion boutiques in the Colorado mountains: Breckenridge and Frisco. http://www.theflyingcrane.com/
We quickly realized that these earrings are a hit top seller. "So cute!" and "How beautiful!" is what we heard over and over again by our guests.
The earrings are so unique and beautiful because they are hand folded out of Washi paper, (wa means Japanese and shi means hand-made paper). We import the paper from Japan and create them in our Breckenridge, Colorado studio.
Each piece takes a very long time to create because they are so tiny and each fold must be precise. But don't feel sorry for us because we love to make them for women who want to feel special when they wear them.
(The Dragonfly is a best seller!)Each piece takes a very long time to create because they are so tiny and each fold must be precise. But don't feel sorry for us because we love to make them for women who want to feel special when they wear them.
We will make a point of posting pictures of women who love our earrings as we go along this exciting journey!
In the meantime ask your local clothing or specialty boutique if they carry Origami Earrings by Flying Crane Jewelry Designs! :-)
Please understand that we are already back ordered because of such high demand (and it takes a long time to make so many perfectly!) so there might be a delay but don't worry we promise to get your earrings to you and hanging off of your cute ears really fast! :-)
We have a toll free number to call for information on where to get these earrings in your area:
