Before: You've been watching a squirrel in the park for an unreasonable amount of time and feeling completely justified.
After: You're wearing the squirrel on one ear, the acorn it's been looking for on the other, and finally giving this chaotic little story the ending it deserves.
This pair has one small brown squirrel (perched, attentive, genuinely doing its best) and one brown acorn (with a textured cap and smooth body just waiting to be found). Each hand-sculpted in polymer clay with the kind of detail that makes people lean in for a closer look and then immediately say "oh that's adorable." They belong together. Of course they do. Handmade in Canada and shipped to Canada and the US.
What You're Getting
- One mismatched pair: one brown polymer clay squirrel stud and one brown polymer clay acorn stud
- Each charm is approximately 1cm × 1cm — small, light, and comfortable for all-day wear
- 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 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 your ears at the park where the squirrels are aggressively confident and you respect that.
🐿️ In a gift box for the person in your life who stops to watch animals doing things and narrates it quietly under their breath.
🐿️ At the farmers market, on a forest walk, or at the cottage weekend where someone spots a squirrel and everyone has to look immediately.
🐿️ On the ears of a child who loves animals and will show approximately everyone at school.
These are the earrings for the woodland-hearted; those people who always stop for the squirrel.

Your Questions

Both the post and butterfly back are 316 grade surgical steel, a high-quality, widely used metal for earring findings. If you have a known metal allergy or sensitivity, please check with your doctor or dermatologist before wearing.
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.
