Before: Finding an acorn on the ground and putting it in your pocket because it felt wrong to leave it.
After: Wearing the acorn on one ear, the leaf it fell from on the other, and never having to explain yourself to anyone.
This pair consists of an orange oak leaf and a brown acorn; the original pair, the way nature intended. Each one handmade in polymer clay: the leaf with its rounded lobes and veins, the acorn with its textured cap and smooth body. They belong together and now they can be, one per ear, every single day. Handmade in Canada and shipped to Canada and the US.
What You're Getting
- One mismatched pair: one orange polymer clay oak leaf stud and one brown polymer clay acorn stud
- Each charm is approximately 1cm × 1cm — small, light, and comfortable for all-day wear
- Detail: vein and lobe detail on the leaf, textured cap on the acorn
- Warm shimmer finish — dimensional and unmistakably handmade
- 316 grade surgical steel posts and butterfly backs

A Note on Colour
Screen colours vary from device to device, so the orange and brown you see in the photos may appear slightly different in person. I photograph everything in natural light, but if you have colour questions before ordering, just get in touch.
Where These Belong in Your Life
🍂 On a walk in the woods in October when the ground is completely covered and you're stepping on everything.
🍂 At the farmers market or the pumpkin patch, having the kind of weekend where you rake leaves and feel oddly satisfied about it.
🍂 In a cottagecore gift box for the friend who keeps dried flowers on her windowsill and makes soup from scratch.
🍂 On your ears at any point between August and December, because autumn people don't wait for the calendar.
These are the earrings for the acorn-pocketers and the leaf-collectors, the people who notice what falls.

Polymer clay is lightweight and holds its shape well under normal everyday wear. Avoid dropping them on hard surfaces or storing them loose where they can get knocked around. Treat them gently and they'll last beautifully. A small jewellery dish or box is their best friend.
