Crafted from the calcaneus bones (heel bones) of a young goat donated by a local farm, these earrings represent a unique blend of nature's beauty and sustainable practices. These earrings honor the life of an animal by utilizing a part that would otherwise go unused. Donated by a local farm, the goat passed away naturally, ensuring no harm was caused solely for this purpose.
Each earring measures approximately 1.75 inches, making them a charming and lightweight addition to your everyday look. Topped with silver-plated bells, these earrings add a touch of playful sound and movement. Finished with silver-plated French style findings for comfortable wear.
More than just an accessory, these earrings are a conversation starter. They represent your appreciation for:
- Sustainable practices: Minimizing waste and honoring the circle of life.
- Unique design: Embracing the beauty of nature in unexpected ways.
- Ethical sourcing: Utilizing responsibly donated materials.
