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.

Two thorn torpedoes fused into one earring, each cradling a tourmaline — the compact (S) scale of STRUGA's doubled amulet.
Double Thorn pairs two cast silver torpedoes, each split diagonally to hold its own stone. Tourmaline is a family of more than seven mineral species — rubellite, verdelite, indicolite, achroite — coloured by iron, manganese or copper; every STRUGA Double Thorn earring carries two crystals from that family, never identical in tone. The pair in #1 is unique to this casting and will not repeat. 925 sterling silver, Living Silver finish. A wax model, a silicone form, 925 silver, and hand finishing.
A mono earring for one ear. Worn as a daily amulet, the paired stones carry pleochroic colour that shifts with light — the same mineral showing two sides of itself.
Double Thorn — a THORN-amulet, a type within the AMULET family, in the RITUAL world. Mono-earring for one ear: two cast silver torpedoes, each split diagonally to hold its own rough, uncut tourmaline. 925 sterling silver, Living Silver finish — silver without rhodium that darkens with air and skin; recesses go dark, friction lightens the raised edges. Patina is a property, not a defect. Tourmaline is a family of several mineral species, so the two stones never match in tone; the pairing in #1 does not repeat. Care: a soft cloth or silver-cleaning solution; avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.

Ask a question →Frequently asked questions
Is this a pair of earrings or a single earring for one ear?
Double Thorn is a mono-earring, worn on one ear. A single earring carries two silver THORN torpedoes, each holding its own tourmaline. Wear it alongside another STRUGA earring, or leave it on its own — the choice is yours.
How much does the earring weigh and how does it sit?
The earring is 2.3 grams of 925 sterling silver. The format is compact (S): two short torpedoes on a single earring, made for everyday wear on one ear.
What are the stones, and are they identical?
Each of the two torpedoes holds its own rough, wild-grown tourmaline, left uncut. The shades differ: tourmaline is a family of several mineral species, so every stone carries its own colour. The pairing of stones in #1 is not repeated in any other piece.
Why does the silver darken, and how do I care for it?
The surface is Living Silver — 925 sterling silver without rhodium plating. The earring arrives light and darkens with air and skin: the recesses of the relief go dark, while friction lightens the raised edges. Patina is a property, not a defect. To bring the metal back toward the light, care for it with a soft cloth or a silver-cleaning solution. Avoid harsh chemicals and ultrasonic baths.
Which family does Double Thorn belong to?
Double Thorn is a THORN-amulet — a type within the AMULET family, in the RITUAL world. The form repeats the THORN spike in three dimensions: a torpedo split in two, with a rough, wild-grown stone set inside. Here there are two such torpedoes, carried on a single earring.
