THE STORY OF THIS PIECE
The fifth form of the brand — STRUGA’s own heart. A recognizable heart: half smooth, half angular, joining two completely different hearts into one. The family runs from a light heart, as if bent from wire, to the Solid Heart, the Heart Lock clasp and a tiny stud — the smallest object in the brand.
Read the SIGNATURE HEART form story→EXPLORE STRUGA
A 1.6-gram stud in uncoated 925 silver, held on the lobe as a single point — the SIGNATURE HEART at the smallest scale STRUGA makes.
Signature Heart is the Dual Heart — one form holding two characters at once, half smooth, half sharp. The stud version is the smallest scale STRUGA makes: the full silhouette compressed onto the lobe, the same logic the brand uses across rings, necklaces and earrings. 925 silver, uncoated. A quiet STRUGA mark, readable from close range.
Mono or as a pair. The size you can forget you're wearing.
Material: 925 sterling silver, uncoated.
World and family: CODEX → SIGNATURE HEART — the Dual Heart, one shape holding two characters, half smooth and half sharp; the fifth form of STRUGA.
Surface: Living Silver — the metal darkens with air and skin on its own; the patina is a property, not a defect.
Wear: a stud, worn mono or as a pair; unisex.
Care: return it to the light with a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution; avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
How it is made: the form is modelled first, in 3D or by hand in wax. A silicone mould is taken from that model, and the silver is cast into it. The finished stud is worked by hand. One stud is $95, made to order in about two weeks.
How this stud compares with the other Signature Heart earrings
| Earring | Weight · price | How the heart is read |
|---|---|---|
| Heart Stud (this piece) | 1.6 g $95 |
The silhouette compressed to the smallest object in the brand; sits on the lobe as a single point |
| Small Wired Heart | 2.9 g $130 |
The same heart drawn as one continuous line — an outline rather than a volume |
| Blade Pin + Solid Heart | 4.7 g $210 |
The filled heart threaded onto a thin BLADE shaft: dense volume against the thinnest line |
| Classic Solid Heart | 5.9 g $220 |
The heart cast filled and hung below a small hoop; it moves with the head |
Who it is for, and when. The stud suits people who wear silver every day and take it off rarely: at 1.6 grams it is the smallest object STRUGA makes, and it does not pull on the lobe through a working day or a night out. It is unisex — the small scale and the clean edge read the same on any ear. Worn singly it is a quiet mark; worn as a pair it reads as a set, and two pieces are ordered separately. In a stacked ear it holds the smallest point beside heavier STRUGA silver instead of competing with it. As a gift it goes to someone who would rather have one small precise object than a large one — $95 per stud, made to order in about two weeks, delivered in brand packaging with a card naming the family.
About STRUGA. STRUGA is a dark silver jewelry brand founded by Dmitry Strugovshchikov and Ekaterina Strugovshchikova; the pieces are made by hand in Bali by master silversmiths. This one is 925 sterling silver with no plating — Living Silver, which darkens on its own with air and skin. The darkening is part of the design. It is a brutalist object that reacts and changes through contact with the environment and the wearer.

Ask a question →Frequently asked questions
How much does the stud weigh, and how does it feel in the ear?
The stud is 1.6 grams of 925 sterling silver. It is the smallest object STRUGA makes: in the ear, you barely feel it. Suited to everyday wear, it sits without pulling on the lobe.
Is this one earring or a pair?
The price is for a single stud — $95. Wear it in one ear or as a pair, your choice. If you want a pair, order two pieces.
What is the SIGNATURE HEART form?
SIGNATURE HEART is STRUGA's own heart, the fifth form of the brand, from the CODEX world. One shape joins two different hearts: one half smooth, the other angular. In the stud, that form is compressed to the smallest possible size.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 sterling silver without rhodium plating. The stud arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses of the relief deepen, while friction lightens the raised edges. The patina is a property, not a defect. You can bring the metal back to the light with care — a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
Will the earring suit a man?
Yes — the stud is unisex. Its small size and clean form read on any ear, worn singly or as a pair.
