Ethical Rabbit's Foot Earrings

PussyWillow Jewellery

— September 19, 2008 — Fashion
In an enlarged image these drop earrings look like those rabbit’s foot key chains from the 80’s. Thankfully not one bunny was injured in the making of them.

We may be just heading into fall, but these earrings are spring incarnate. They are made from tiny furry pussy-willow catkins dangling from oxidized sterling silver chains. The emergence of the fuzzy buds from this willow shrub is a sure sign spring is around the corner. These adorable earrings are the handiwork of Stephanie Simek, the designer also behind a unique eyelash necklace posted previously on Trend Hunter.
Trend Themes
1. Ethical Jewelry - Creating jewelry using ethical and sustainable materials, like these rabbit's foot earrings made from cruelty-free fibers, is a disruptive innovation opportunity in the fashion industry.

3. Handcrafted Accessories - Producing handcrafted accessories, like these earrings made by Stephanie Simek, offers a disruptive innovation opportunity in the artisanal jewelry market.
