Why Fish Leather?
A conscious choice.
Fish leather is an eco-friendly, durable material made from by-products of the fishing industry. Tanned using natural processes, it embodies sustainability without sacrificing luxury or style.
Earrings, also known as studs, hoops, or dangles, come in a wide variety of styles, each with its own charm and distinctive features. Some of the most common types include: studs, hoops, chandelier or drop earrings, ear climbers, and ear cuffs.
Types of Earrings:
Studs:
Small and discreet earrings that sit directly on the earlobe, often secured with a push-back or butterfly clasp.
Hoops:
Circular in shape, they range in size from small and subtle to large and bold. A timeless and versatile classic.
Chandelier or Drop Earrings:
These earrings hang and extend downward, often adorned with gemstones, beads, or decorative details.
Ear Climbers:
These earrings attach at the base of the lobe and “climb” upward along the ear, creating a striking, ascending look.
Ear Cuffs:
Worn on the cartilage, these earrings don’t require piercings (though some styles may include additional ones), and can cover a portion of the ear for a bold effect.
Huggies:
Small hoops that fit snugly around the earlobe, offering a minimalist and comfortable option.
Cluster Earrings:
Composed of multiple gemstones or decorative elements grouped together, either as studs or drops.
Chain Earrings:
Feature chains as a central design element, creating a modern and dynamic aesthetic.
Asymmetrical Earrings:
Designs that showcase different shapes or details on each earring, adding an original and contemporary touch.
Pearl Earrings:
A timeless classic that never goes out of style. Available in various forms, such as studs, drops, or hoops.
Ear Climbers (extended version):
These earrings extend upward along the edge of the ear, creating a bold and eye-catching effect.
In addition to these main styles, countless variations and combinations of designs, materials, and embellishments allow everyone to find the perfect pair that suits their personal style and the occasion.
