Loving how this pair came out.

Purple heart with a shattuckite inlay and a thin brass accent—simple but the colors really stand out.

Handmade and one of a kind.

Just added these to my Etsy shop 👀

These handcrafted earrings are made from bubinga and feature a bold shattuckite stone inlay with a clean copper accent line. The deep reddish tones of the wood paired with that blue-green stone really make this set stand out.

Lightweight, unique, and one-of-a-kind—no two pairs are ever exactly the same.

Deep, rich tones with a pop of color 🌿

These handcrafted earrings are made from beautiful purple heart wood, accented with a sleek brass inlay and a striking line of malachite. The contrast really brings them to life—simple, bold, and one of a kind.

Lightweight, comfortable, and finished by hand right here in the shop.

🌿 Three New Olive Wood Earring Sets 🌿

Just finished these three pairs made from beautiful olive wood. Each pair measures about 1.25” round and shows off the natural grain that makes olive wood so unique.

Some of the grain patterns almost look like mountain landscapes or waves. That’s one of the reasons I love working with this wood — every pair is different.

🪵 Handmade in Los Osos, CA

If you had to pick one… top, middle, or bottom pair? 👇

Just finished this new pair in the shop. These earrings feature a sunburst design made from bubinga, walnut, maple, and yellowheart, highlighting the natural color of each wood.

Each wedge is individually cut and assembled, making every pair completely unique. They measure about 1.5 inches round and are lightweight enough for comfortable everyday wear.

Handmade in my small workshop here on the Central Coast.

What do you think of this design? I’m thinking about making a few more variations.

These cocobolo and abalone inlay earrings just came out of the shop and the shell colors are incredible. The abalone shifts between greens, blues, and gold depending on the light.

Cocobolo has such a rich natural grain, and pairing it with hand-cut abalone gives each pair a really unique look.

Handmade in my small workshop here on California’s Central Coast.

Approx. 1.5” x 1/2” and lightweight.
