Birch Bark Texture Studs
These earrings originated with the impression of birch bark onto wax. Paper birch, also called white birch, is native to northern North America. It is often the first tree to grow in areas disturbed by wildfire, avalanche and windthrow. New beginnings and resilience. The feeling of sunlight coming through yellow leaves in October.
Wear them every day as a simple stud with an extra glimmer of light-catching texture. Made of 14k recycled gold. Sustainable and unique for the nature lover!
Approximately 0.2 inches across.
Made in the USA.
About Thicket:
Thicket is for anyone who has ever loved a small corner of landscape. Designer Rebecca Perea-Kane grew up in New England fascinated by wood frogs, painted turtles, and pitcher plants. After working for other independent jewelry and textile designers, and an MFA in poetry, Rebecca launched Thicket in 2014.
Thicket pieces begin with a mold of found and foraged natural objects. This mold is used in the process of lost wax casting which creates perfect replicas of the original object in solid fine metal. The casting is done by an artisan casting house in New York City's jewelry district that specializes in working with recycled metals. From there each piece is made with heirloom care, by hand, in Thicket's sunny studio in Portland, Maine.
