Style & Inspiration

The pohutukawa is one of New Zealand's most iconic flowering trees — its crimson blooms mark midsummer and coastline in equal measure. This earring translates that flower into something wearable and lasting: a fluid, hand-carved form that keeps the looseness of the original rather than reaching for botanical precision.

The oxidised tips deepen the shadow at the stamen ends, giving each flower a quiet intensity — present enough to catch the light, subtle enough to wear every day.

Pairs beautifully with other pieces from the Botanical Flower collection.
