These little studs are solid sterling silver, polished up to a smooth, liquid-like shine. They’ve got this soft, organic shape - inspired by a kidney bean shape. I've designed them to have a flat back so they are simple, and comfy, perfect for everyday wear!

Kidney Bean Studs
♢ Solid sterling silver
♢ To create these earring I started by carving the bean shape out of wax and casting them in the traditional method of lost wax casting. They are NOT hollow but are solid sterling silver - but not to heavy either.
♢ I finish the earrings by soldering on solid sterling silver posts and stamping my MP initials along with .925 on the backside.
♢ The butterfly style earring backs are a step up in quality, a slightly thicker gauge than normal. Since studs are my go-to earrings I have found from experience that a nicer ear backing was needed to hold up in regular use and keep your earrings on!
♢ The process of creating is slow and intentional, I use traditional metalsmithing tools and processes alongside modern ones to create all my pieces by hand. My heart goes into every single piece I design.
