The Mini Cross Bone & Drop Stud 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.
This piece is available with your choice of drop: freshwater pearl, onyx, amethyst or garnet. Each option brings a different mood to the sculptural silver form, from the soft organic lustre of freshwater pearls to the deeper tones of natural gemstones.
Materials: Sterling silver, Freshwater pearls, Onyx, Amethyst or Garnet.
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: 1.5cm length. 0.8cm pearls/gemstones
