These chunky colour blocked earrings are feather light in your ears, and light on the planet too.
I call these earrings Penumbra, after the shadow cast by the earth or moon over an area experiencing a partial eclipse. For me they evoke big celestial bodies casting giant shadows.
| Description |
The Penumbra earrings are composed of a 1.25 inches wide black matte leather circle, and a hand cut vegetable tanned leather arch in a deep rosy peach that is 1.5 inches tall and 1.25 inches wide. The arch hangs from the black circle with a polished ring of copper. The overall length of the earring is 3 inches.
These come in a few variations - see the last picture for the other versions and then look for their listings here in our shop!
| The Tellurian Collection |
These earrings are part of the Tellurian collection. Tellurian means “dweller on the earth” or “of, relating to, or characteristic of the earth.” Each piece is named for an element of the universe. My hope is they evoke a sense of belonging to the place we find ourselves, and a reminder that we are a part of nature.
| How They were Made |
The Penumbra earrings are made of recycled leather, which has been cut, trimmed and buffed with a conservation and restoration grade wax that resists dirt and stains, and scrap solid copper electrical wire that has been stripped, cleaned, shaped and polished by hand with the same wax in order to preserve the rose gold tone. The leather shapes are then joined either by the copper jump rings or by adhesive to one another. Solid sterling silver posts adhere sturdily and come with sterling silver butterfly cap backings.
Each pair is made with my two hands in my studio on the traditional territory of the Anishinabewaki ᐊᓂᔑᓈᐯᐗᑭ and Omàmìwininìwag (Algonquin).
| Care |
Please avoid handling the earrings with dirty or wet fingers. Do not get wet, lay flat to store. In time, the copper jump rings will develop a darker patina that can be brightened with a quick buff of a polishing cloth.
| Shipping |
Your earrings ship for free in minimalist, environmentally friendly packaging and will be mailed within one to two business days of receiving your order. As they are essentially one of a kind and irreplaceable, they will be shipped to you with tracking and include insurance coverage in the case of loss or damage on route, at no extra cost to you.
| A note about my descriptions of the vegetable tanned leather (the blush/nude/pink) |
Blush and nude are very euro-centric terms that imply white skin as standard. I have tried my best to find alternative descriptions that still convey the precise colour of the pieces so you can feel comfortable choosing the perfect pair for you!
