The Splash of Gold earrings pay homage to an African parent's love and presence. Though overbearing like the ocean, it has golden strends of unconditional love.
Much like the vast ocean, a mother’s love is deep, unwavering, and sometimes overwhelming. Crafted from luminous shell beads, Splash of Gold earrings symbolise the complexity of this love. The deep oceanic blues represent the strength and depth of a mother’s devotion, while the golden web-like patterns echo the warmth of her care—sometimes hidden beneath layers of discipline, resilience, and sacrifice.
Each thread of gold tells a story: of love woven through struggle, of protection disguised as firmness, and of the enduring wisdom passed down through generations. These earrings honor African mothers, ancestors, and all who have shaped us with their strength and sacrifice.
Wear them as a tribute to the ones who came before you—those whose love, like the ocean, shaped the shorelines of your life.
Handmade in Adelaide, SA. Inspired by heritage. Rooted in resilience.
#1: Splash of Gold
In many African homes, love is not always soft. It is sometimes a firm hand on your shoulder, a voice that pushes you forward, and an unyielding presence that refuses to let you fail. Our ancestors, shaped by hardship, have passed down a love that is as powerful as the tides.
With every pair of Splash of Gold earrings sold, you are not just wearing a story—you are building a village. 100% of proceeds go towards the Masoka Village project fundraiser, ensuring that future generations can connect to the roots of their heritage.
