These cheerful and bright earrings are feather light in your ears, and light on the planet too.

I have named this pair “Summer Solstice”, for the light filled longest day of the year.



| Description |

Summer Solstice is composed of a 3/4 inch circle cut from a bright blue leather, a 1 inch wide half circle cut from bright mustard leather, a 1.25 inch wide half circle cut from a pale peach vegetable tanned leather, and a 3/4 inch matte black circle, all connected by polished copper jump rings. The overall length is 2.75 inches.




| 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 |

Summer Solstice 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!
