JEWELRY
INSPIRATION
The Heracleum earrings celebrate the delicate yet wild beauty of Hogweed, also known by its scientific name Heracleum sphondylium. Inspired by antique botanical plates, these earrings pay tribute to nature in all its poetry and precision, blending timeless elegance, plant symbolism, and mythological heritage.
The name of the plant, derived from Heracles (Hercules in Roman mythology), evokes its vigor and vital force: like the legendary hero, the hogweed grows tall and robust, defying wind and cold, its broad umbels stretching like protective arms. These earrings echo that quiet strength and grounded femininity — a graceful balance of resilience and gentleness rooted in the earth.
Each earring adopts an oval shape, a timeless symbol of femininity, fertility, and softness. Carefully engraved, the stylized silhouette of hogweed leaves appears in a style reminiscent of 18th-century naturalist drawings — a fusion of scientific rigor and artistic sensibility. Every vein, texture, and contour is captured with precision, like a botanical etching preserved in silver.
Wearing the Heracleum earrings means entering an imaginary world of ancient forests, grassy paths, and thick-paged herbals annotated in brown ink — where science meets contemplation. They are an ode to the authenticity and permanence of nature. Whether you’re a lover of botany, fascinated by mythology, or drawn to vintage aesthetics, these earrings form a subtle bridge between the vegetal world, symbolic meaning, and fine craftsmanship.
