Brutalism Ear Cuff V.2 (L) | STRUGA
A BRUTALISM variation on the ear — V.2 reads its own geometry in STRUGA's architectural silver code.
BRUTALISM is the design code STRUGA developed with an architect for silver architecture: thick edges, aggressive angles, unfinished surfaces. V.2 is a separate form within the language, not a step between V.1 and V.3 — its own cut of the code. A wax model, a silicone form, 925 silver, and hand finishing. Living Silver finish: recesses darken over time, raised planes stay bright from wear.
Full size. A structural silver object at the height of the face — no piercing required.
925 sterling silver, no rhodium plating — a BRUTALISM ear cuff from the CODEX world.
Living Silver surface: recesses darken with air and skin, raised facets stay bright from wear. Patina is a property, not a defect.

Sits on the edge of the ear by a clamp, no piercing required. Care: soft cloth or silver-cleaning solution; avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the cuff weigh, and how does it sit on the ear?
The Brutalism Ear Cuff V.2 is 3.8 grams of 925 sterling silver, size L. It sits on the edge of the ear with a clamp, no piercing required: you slide it onto the rim of the ear and press it gently to shape. The object has presence, yet it is not heavy.
Do I need a piercing to wear the cuff?
No. The cuff holds to the edge of the ear by its clamp, so no piercing is needed. It is one object per ear — worn as a single piece, on one side.
What is V.2 — a version between V.1 and V.3?
No. V.2 is a form in its own right within the BRUTALISM family, not a step between V.1 and V.3. Each version has its own geometry of facets and angles; the number marks the form, not a level.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 silver without rhodium plating. The cuff arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses of the relief deepen, while friction lightens the raised facets. Patina is a property, not a defect. You can return the metal to the light with simple care: a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
What is the BRUTALISM family?
BRUTALISM is a STRUGA family from the CODEX world: architecture in silver. Thick facets, sharp angles, raw planes; the form draws on the aesthetic of Soviet brutalism with a trace of Suprematism. Today the family is rings and ear cuffs, all handcrafted in Bali, Indonesia.
