Starfish Stud Earrings – Handmade Sterling Silver 925 or Gold

A pair of sterling silver stud earrings hand carved in wax and cast using the traditional lost wax technique. Inspired by the quiet geometry of the starfish, the design translates one of nature’s most balanced forms into a refined wearable object — where radial symmetry meets intricate surface texture.

Each earring is finished in high-polish sterling silver, allowing the carved detail to catch and reflect light across every raised surface. At 2.2 cm wide, the form sits confidently on the ear — present without excess, detailed without heaviness. The result is a piece that feels both grounded and expressive, suited to everyday wear as well as more considered occasions.

Cast from a hand-carved original, each pair is individually finished in the Cornwall studio, ensuring subtle variation in surface and polish.

Maker’s Note

“The starfish has always fascinated me — not just for its shape, but for its stillness and balance. I wanted to keep that sense of quiet structure, but bring it into something you can wear every day. Each pair is finished by hand, so no two are ever exactly identical.”
