About the design
The 'scroll' is the functional, detachable part of an earring that secures it to the wearer’s ear. It sits behind the earlobe and is not normally seen. Daniel Eatock takes this readymade component and continues it at the front of the ear, forming a hoop of 24 archetypal scrolls.
About the Collaboration
Daniel Eatock is an artist known for elevating everyday objects and observations into works of wit and clarity. In discussing our collaboration, Daniel said, "How can I make jewellery when I don’t wear jewellery, don’t like decoration, and am not that keen on shiny things? I wanted to define a form from function. We reduced things down to the archetypal ‘butterfly’ scroll. By repeating this tiny detail multiple times, a lovely new form emerges that is both familiar and unexpected."
Every pair of earrings is made to order, minimising waste and ensuring care at every stage. Please allow 5 business days before shipping.
