*We found more chain stock! This style is no longer limited but temporarily out of stock*
Little earrings with a mighty spirit.
A classic style, curb chain was originally made for the bit of armored horses. It has German etymological origins in medieval words for armor, and the chain's flattened, interlocking links call to mind the woven patterns of chainmail. Petite, fluid elements comprising a fortified whole.
This style is limited, made with vintage sterling silver chain that we dipped in a thick layer of 23.5 karat gold.
Gold vermeil, sold as a pair
Small: 15mm long of 4mm wide chain
