Maxi Candy Stud Earrings

What

These gorgeous Maxi Candy Stud Earrings are part of the ‘CANDY’ range within the STRENGTH collection. The range also includes Midi Candy stud earrings and Maxi Candy stacking ring, all available in separate listings.

The idea being this particular range is to offer you a jewellery that is the most sustainable possible. To make those pieces I have used recycled precious metals that I carefully collect whenever I make a piece of jewellery. Recycled metal can be in the form of dust, off-cuts, sample pieces etc. Each precious metal is collected separately to avoid cross contamination, hence keeping its purity.

I then melt down a quantity of the chosen metal to create those very tactile juicy metal pearls. I called them ‘candies’ as the molten metal naturally gather to form beautiful gleaming spheres. Gravity and the speed of the cooling process will allow the spheres to flatten slightly. Each little candy is totally unique as I do not use a mould when melting the metal. I use the natural properties of the metal and the heat of the torch to shape those delicious candies.

Who for

For those who are looking for a jewellery that combines sustainability with sophistication.

Their organic round shape is both feminine and strong. They are also great alternative to the more traditional pearl earrings.

So versatile that you can wear them with pretty much anything.

Maybe you are a fan of multiple ear piercings, then you would probably prefer the MIDI version of these studs, available here.

Very giftable. You are sure to make a beautiful present that everyone will love.

How to wear them

From office wear to more casual chic , they make you look polished and elegant.

Available in a selection of precious metals, including luscious shades of gold, a classic shiny silver polish or a more graphic dark oxidised silver finish. Pick the colour that reflects your mood of the moment !

Why not pair them with our fabulous matching Maxi CANDY stacking ring for a total look.

Materials

Handmade in a selection of precious metals. Pick yours from the drop down menu.

Oxidised sterling silver: the colour will not come off. It is completely safe to wear on your skin, clothes etc. However please note that each item is made by hand and oxidation cannot give 100% identical results each time, which adds charm and character to the piece.

On ear posts and stops.

Care

Please handle your jewellery with care.

Shiny silver : gently rub the silver with an anti-tarnish silver cloth to bring their shine back. When you are not wearing your jewellery we recommend that you keep it in an air-tight container, like the one we will send your jewellery in.

Oxidised silver: do not rub the silver or you will take the dark grey layer off and reveal the shiny silver underneath.
