THE STORY OF THIS PIECE
One-of-one ritual amulets — earrings and necklaces built around a raw, wild-growth natural stone. The Amulet family spans two models: the Thorn frame and the Classic cylinder. Every piece is unique in stone, colour, and character.

Raw aquamarine held inside a split silver torpedo — the first Thorn Amulet in the series, in medium size.
Thorn Amulet #1 opens the series: a M-size Thorn frame cast in 925 silver, split open to let a raw aquamarine sit inside the cut. Each stone is hand-picked — no two repeat. THORN design code — sharp planes born from the brand's first CNC experiments, now drawn in volume. Living Silver finish — recesses darken, raised planes stay bright.
A ritual object for one ear. What it reminds you of is for the wearer to decide.
Material: 925 sterling silver, Living Silver finish — a property, not oxidation: recesses darken, raised planes stay bright, and patina is a property, not a defect.
Entity: Thorn Amulet, a type within the AMULET family of the RITUAL world; its THORN design code gives a split-torpedo form drawn in volume.
Stone: a raw, wild-grown aquamarine set inside the cut — material and form, never a source of power or effect.
Format: a mono earring, worn singly in one ear.
Care: soft cloth or silver-cleaning solution; no harsh chemicals or ultrasonic baths.
About STRUGA. STRUGA is a dark silver jewelry brand founded by Dmitry Strugovshchikov and Ekaterina Strugovshchikova, handcrafted in our Bali workshop by master silversmiths. Every piece is 925 sterling silver, naturally oxidized or hand-patinated. The darkening is part of the design. It is a brutalist object that reacts and changes through contact with the environment and the wearer.
Frequently asked questions
How much does the earring weigh, and how does it sit in the ear?
The amulet earring is 5 grams of 925 sterling silver, size M, worn in one ear. The weight is present but does not pull on the lobe. This is a mono format: the earring is worn singly, in one ear.
Is this earring one of a kind, or are there many like it?
One of a kind. This is Thorn Amulet #1, a single piece: the stone is a raw, wild-grown aquamarine, chosen by hand and never repeated. No other earring carries the same stone.
What is the stone, and what effect does it give?
The stone is a raw aquamarine, grown in its natural form, uncut, blue in colour. It is material and form, not a source of power. An amulet is an object that carries personal meaning for the one who wears it; STRUGA makes no promise of any effect from the stone.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 silver without rhodium plating. The earring arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses of the relief darken, while friction lightens the raised edges. Patina is a property, not a defect. You can return the metal to the light with care: a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Do not use harsh chemicals or ultrasonic baths.
What is a Thorn Amulet?
The Thorn Amulet is a type within the AMULET family of the RITUAL world. Its form echoes THORN in volume: like a torpedo cut in half, with a raw, wild-grown stone grown inside it. It is the most expressive amulet of the family, an homage to Daniel Arsham.
