Taniwha Claw Earrings

$165.00

The Taniwha Claw Earrings are asymmetrical, featuring a long paua “claw.”

Designed with the spirit of mana tane in mind, the claw earrings have an assertive yet playful aesthetic. Handcrafted with local pāua shell, Swarovski pearls, stainless steel and sterling silver hardware, the earrings are both beautiful and tough.

To preserve the life of your piece, we recommend avoiding water, salt, and moisture. Maritime lore warns against wearing jewellery at the water’s edge, where beauty is said to invite the vanity and jealousy of sea spirits.
