Hannah Blount | Pearl Studs | Sterling Barnacles

Lush, baroque freshwater pearls are adorned with clusters of barnacles, adding a nautical twist to classic white pearls. A seasonless statement, these earrings feature bright sterling silver barnacles. They are a celebration of the beauty of the sea, a blend of elegance and maritime inspiration.

Round, white baroque freshwater button pearls with hand-carved barnacles. Solid bright sterling silver barnacles, posts, and ear nuts in a matte finish.

Freshwater baroque pearls are beloved for their gloriously irregular, non-spherical shapes and varying orient (the shimmering iridescence that appears to coat each pearl) and luster. Like all pearls, freshwater baroque pearls are formed when an irritant becomes trapped in a mollusk. The mollusk secretes a fluid, called nacre, which coats the irritant layer upon layer until a pearl is formed.
