Speckled Series – Verdigris Vine – Dangle Earrings

Description

Inspired by the lush, hidden corners of a mossy glen where nature slowly reclaims the landscape. These earrings from the Speckled Series capture the vibrant, shifting greens of winding vines and soft forest growth. They represent a “perfectly aged” botanical aesthetic—the kind of rich, textured patina you find on a fallen branch or an ancient stone wall tucked away in the deep woods.

Materials: Each pair begins with a base of vibrant green polymer clay, hand-formed into a classic, open-hoop silhouette. To achieve their signature depth, the front of each earring is treated with verdigris embossing powder. During the baking process, the powder reacts to create a multidimensional, layered speckled effect. This artisanal technique ensures that no two hoops are exactly alike, with “speckles” ranging from deep forest tones to bright, oxidized teals.

The Look: Bold, organic, and artfully textured. The verdigris finish gives these hoops a stone-like or “wild-grown” appearance while maintaining a fresh, botanical color palette. The open-circle design provides a modern frame for the complex, grainy texture, making them a standout accessory that feels both ancient and contemporary. They are the perfect statement piece for those who love earthy tones and the unique, handcrafted patterns of the natural world.

The Feel: Surprisingly lightweight for their size. Because they are crafted from polymer clay, these statement hoops offer all the visual impact of heavy “cobbled” stone without any weight on the ears. They are finished with high-quality stainless steel French hooks, ensuring they are hypoallergenic and comfortable for all-day wear from a morning hike to an evening out.

A Note from the Crafter:

“In the Speckled Series, I love exploring how different materials can transform a simple surface. Using verdigris embossing powder on the green clay was like watching a forest vine grow in fast-forward—it creates this incredible, layered ‘speckle’ that feels like moss and lichen taking hold. These hoops are my way of capturing that organic beauty in a shape that is timeless and easy to wear.”
