Kuka-me
Crafted from high-quality sterling silver, these Bedrocks Flower stud earrings are as elegant as they are versatile. Delicately designed in an abstract floral shape, they add a touch of charm to any outfit.
The Bedrock collection is inspired by a famous Andy Warhol print of large fluorescent Day-Glo flowers. The texture of the earrings is formed with a technique called reticulation, which entails heating the silver to almost melting point and then suddenly removing the heat and letting the piece cool rapidly.
After a 30-year career in the jewellery industry, Reema Pachachi decided to launch Kuka-me; meaning uplift or lift me up in Zulu, or Northern Sotho. Reema designs and handmakes her luxurious jewellery in Oxford using recycled sterling silver (nickel free).
Please note that due to hygiene reasons we cannot accept returned earrings.
