Handmade with recycled sterling silver by Elijah & Rhonda Wyman, these oxidized Bird Stud Earrings are a charming and whimsical take on the iconic image of the bird.
A bird’s-eye view. Free as a bird. Out on a lark… Most birds can fly, and because of their ability to transcend our own earth-bound domain we have revered and idolized them throughout our myth-making history. Their songs entrance us, their habits seem mysterious, and so we give birds a grand role in our stories: Creator, trickster, harbinger of life and death, embodiment of the soul, or source of wisdom.
But as parents, we can find common ground with birds. Even though a mother bird lays eggs, she is as fierce and vigilant a parent as any human. Birds build elaborate nests that perfectly suit the needs of their young; they protect their eggs at all costs; and when chicks hatch from those protective shells, they bask under doting wings. With our Love Birds collection, you can keep your own family close under your wing!
“There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before.” - Robert Lynd
These stud earrings measure 1cm x 7mm.
