Sambucus Filigree Micro Ear Studs in Sterling Silver

A pair of filigree ear studs informed by Sambucus nigra — the Elder flower, traditionally associated with protection, renewal, and transformation.

Each stud features a single miniature Sambucus flower formed in sterling silver through strand-by-strand filigree work. The design is reduced to a five-petaled floral structure, with fine central filament and anther detail that defines the character of the bloom at micro scale.

The composition presents the flower as a contained botanical study, where its essential proportions are preserved in a simplified form that sits close to the ear.

Secured with butterfly scroll backings, the studs are designed for everyday wear with a light, unobtrusive presence.

Handcrafted in London through strand-by-strand filigree construction, using fine silver wire that is shaped and placed individually. The process is slow and controlled, informed by Indonesian craft traditions and carried through a contemporary approach to form and composition.
