Sambucus & Achillea Filigree Micro Ear Studs Set in Sterling Silver

A set of two pairs of miniature filigree ear studs inspired by Sambucus nigra — elderflower, traditionally associated with protection, renewal, and transformation — and Achillea millefolium, commonly known as yarrow, associated with healing, resilience, and endurance.

Each pair captures the character of its flower in a delicate sterling silver form, handcrafted through strand-by-strand filigree work. The Sambucus flower features five rounded petals surrounding fine filament and anther details, while the Achillea flower is distinguished by a coiled silver centre finished with a tiny silver sphere.

Together, the two designs bring different botanical forms and meanings into one set, celebrating nature’s quiet strength and capacity for renewal.

Both pairs are secured with butterfly scroll backings. Their miniature scale and lightweight construction make them suitable for everyday wear.
