SUNn Small Ring Earrings
$ 98.00 USD
A frequent feature of SUNn's jewelry is an asymmetry that sets each earring apart while allowing the pieces to complement one another, and this feature is on subtle display in their Small Ring Earrings. These understated works of art add a glint of gold or silver to the ear, though in different proportions: While one earring takes the shape of a simple ring, the other includes a second ring that hangs from the first.

Unfortunately, these non-native varieties made it difficult for native deciduous trees to grow reducing food sources for wildlife and increasing the chance of landslides in the process. Today, Tsukihoshi repurposes these trees into beautiful objects that take on a second life in the city.
