ZIPEI — 'Petal' Drop Earrings, in Silver

The "Affect/Garden" collection draws inspiration from the quiet beauty of a botanical scene, exploring the intricate relationship between nature and the hand of the maker. The collection investigates the untold story of the soil, the bone, the leaves, connected through the touch of the gardener, the artist. Each piece’s organic form is shaped by the pressing of the hand.

This particular design is inspired by the image of flowers falling into water. Each earring hook is individually crafted to mimic a vine, giving each one a unique character. *Please note that due to this handcraft process, each hook may vary from the photo.
