An alternative to metal jewellery is the idea behind Tanya Poirier's line of expertly tatted earrings. As beautiful as metal jewellery is, not all people can wear it. People with metal sensitivity have begun to use lace as an alternative. Cotton lace is lightweight and can be designed to create eye catching pieces. These jewellery pieces are hand crafted in Cape Breton. They are made with quality 100% Egyptian cotton, crystal and glass beads.
