The Foxtail Bone Drop Earrings are handcrafted sterling silver earrings made in Adelaide, South Australia by Olivia Dryden. They belong to the Curios Collection, where natural history, memento mori symbolism and careful craftsmanship meet.
The original fox tail vertebrae was carefully moulded and cast in sterling silver, preserving the fine structure of the specimen with respect and intention. The result is a piece that feels intimate and quietly unusual: a wearable keepsake shaped by nature, memory and the handmade process.
Freshwater pearls soften the sculptural silver form, adding gentle contrast while keeping the piece connected to natural material and organic variation.
Materials: Sterling silver, freshwater pearls or Onyx.
Process: Each piece is handmade in small quantities using traditional silversmithing and casting techniques. Natural variation is part of the process, so small differences in texture, shape and pearl or gemstone character should be expected.
Dimensions: 3.5cm total length (bone 2cm, Pearl/gemstone approx.
