PILKE DROP, Ocra

Twinkle in the corner of your eyes and ears! This drop-shaped Pilke (Finnish for twinkle) stud earring is one of Valona’s most popular earrings. It is a graphic and bold tribute to the natural shape of a water drop.

The wooden part is made entirely of Finnish certified and sustainably sourced birch plywood, while the stud and stopper are sterling silver. The classic and minimalist colour of black suits close to any outfit. The wood is hand-dyed black so that its fibres stand out beautifully from beneath the dark colour.

Wood is a natural material, and slight darkening is its beautiful property. However, if you feel your wood-coloured jewellery has darkened too much over the years, you can clean and bleach the wood part with a soda mixture.

Add a few teaspoons of baking soda to a small amount of water until a thick paste forms.
Carefully rub the wooden part with a toothbrush, for example.
Rinse and pat dry.
Birch withstands careful dampening well.
