The background...

Matched but not the same, these earrings were created from vintage and repurposed elements. These include repurposed beads and a crab shaped charm set with Paua shell, a vintage Lucite shell charm and a silver toned connector sourced from old warehouse stock.

In Maori culture, the shifting colours of the Paua shell shift symbolise change and transition.

  • made with vintage components c.1950s-80s and repurposed materials which may show signs of their age in a deepened patina and minor wear
