Double Thorn Earrings
Two thorns instead of one
THORN is the third form of the brand: a thorn with sharp angles, bringing together two aesthetics — CNC and 3D-modelling. THORN pricks the skin a little, and will not let you forget it.
The Double Thorn puts two of them together. Four pieces here, from 2.3 to 7 grams — a factor of three between the small and the large.
What doubling changes
A single thorn reads as a point. Two read as a direction: the eye follows from one tip to the other, and the piece has an axis it did not have before.
It also changes contact. One thorn touches the ear at a single place; two distribute the same mass across two, which at 7 grams is what makes the large size wearable at all.
Numbered, not editioned
Double Thorn Earring #1 through #4. The number is the running count of that model — the fourth made, not the fourth of a limited run.
Two sizes: S at 2.3 grams and L at 7. The difference is not subtle, and the large one is a piece you are aware of all day.
Silver that ages
925 sterling silver without rhodium plating. The tips polish bright from contact while the inner angles go dark, so the geometry sharpens visually over a year rather than flattening.
Silver cleaner returns it to light whenever you want. Take it off before the pool.
Sold singly
Each listing is one earring. A Double Thorn on one side against a plain stud on the other is the way most of these are worn.
