Puriri Flower Earrings

Flowering most heavily over Winter, and fruiting in Summer, Puriri trees are evergreen, and a favourite of the Puriri moth, who makes the tree its home by tunneling into the wood.  Boiled Puriri leaves were used by Maori to bathe sprains and muscle aches.  The flowers range from bright pink, to dark red, to pale rose pink, to white. 

Sterling silver tubular flowers (18mm x 10mm), hand painted with porcelain paint in an ombre of dark to lighter pinks.  Tiny detailed leaves adorn the reverse of the flowers.  Hanging from sterling silver ear hooks. 

For hygiene reasons, we are unable to accept returns or exchanges of earrings. Please choose carefully!
