These earthy wood-slice earrings are from the historic Cedar of Lebanon at Tyler Arboretum that had to be removed in December of 2021 due to its declining health. Tyler’s staff graciously saved portions of the tree for us. They are extremely lightweight with antique brass lever-back ear wires or silver toned zin alloy fish hook wires. They are nickel free.

If you haven’t been to Tyler Arboretumyet, you should. It’s absolutely magical.

Our wooden jewelry is made from organic material and is not water-proof. You may want to remove your earrings before water based activities, like swimming or showering, so you may enjoy them longer.
