Annette Ferdinandsen Simple Bug Drop Earrings in 14K Gold

The everyday drop, done right. Each Simple Bug is a faceted stone tapered like a seed pod, capped in satin-finish 14k gold and hung from a hand-finished ear wire. Small enough to wear every day, polished enough for evening. Choose the depth of black onyx, the ice of rock crystal, the blush of rose quartz or the soft lavender-blue of chalcedony, or wear two colors at once.

Caring for Your Earrings

Put these on after lotion, perfume and hairspray. Wipe the stones and gold with a soft cloth after wearing, or rinse in warm water with a drop of mild soap and dry well. Store each pair on its own so the facets stay crisp.

Why We Carry Annette Ferdinandsen

Annette trained at the Rhode Island School of Design and makes every piece by hand in her studio in New York's Hudson Valley. Her work begins in the natural world: ginkgo leaves, feathers, bees, the moon. It ends as fine jewelry with real presence. That is the same standard we hold our estate and heirloom pieces to: made by hand, made to last, and made by someone you can name. She is independent, American-made, and her pieces look like no one else's. We are proud to carry her in Mystic.
