artisan botanical earrings in oxidized brass by undergrowth studio

A pair of artisan stud earrings, uniquely shaped into sculptural semi- abstract, semi- botanical forms. Handmade from brass, they curl by the ear, giving off a gentle golden sheen of the oxidized and polished metal. Inspired by plants and by abstract art, they make a quiet but distinct contemporary statement.

This pair is quiet and unobtrusive but draws attention with its gentle boldness. They speak of the kind of courage that is constant and needed for everyday life.

All pieces in Undergrowth Studio are designed by me and handcrafted in my small home studio in Skibbereen, Ireland.

Undergrowth studio is a small, one-woman owned and ran art-jewellery practice. It is based in a small town on the wild coast of Ireland. I handcraft collectible, understated pieces of jewellery full of edgy elegance. They are perfect for those who are drawn to the quiet, the weathered and the beautifully imperfect, the wild, assymetrical and irregular grace of the natural world. For those who love art and are looking for a piece of unique authentic contemporary craft to gift or treasure.
Imbued with the landscape, each piece is a world of its own. Every ring or earring is a small talisman of place, a wearable connection to the rocky shoreline where I love to walk, the corroded cliffs, the intimacy of tide pools, the sun, rain and wind.

My work carries the story of objects sculpted slowly by the elements. Driftwood, beach combed bones, stones whose fragile, weather scarred beauty speaks of impermanence and of our deep connection to the natural world. No two pieces are ever the same.

I use recycled silver and upcycle all my studio scraps. I only use eco friendly chemicals in my silver smithing work.
I am always happy to talk about my work, so, if you have any questions, please don‘t hesitate to write!
