Tomato Earrings
$25.00

These tomato dangle earrings are a tiny ode to tenderness, joy, and the things we choose to carry with us.

Made from lightweight mirror acrylic, they catch the light (and attention) with every turn—playful, a little unexpected, and full of life. The design is inspired by The Book of Delights by Ross Gay—specifically the image of him traveling with a tomato plant, nurturing something living and bright wherever he goes.

These earrings are a reminder that delight can be grown, carried, and shared.
That even something as simple as a tomato can be a symbol of care, curiosity, and connection.

Wear them when you want to feel a little more alive. 🍅✨ Hand designed and assembled by me.
