Sterling Silver Stud Earrings – Handmade Anchor Link Design
Why We Love This Product
These sterling silver stud earrings will become your everyday go-to, combining nautical heritage with modern minimalism. Hand-carved by award-winning jeweller Tamara Gervasio in her Cornwall studio, each pair draws inspiration from the timeless anchor link, creating a shape that feels both contemporary and enduring.
What makes these handmade silver studs truly special is Tamara's use of the ancient lost wax technique. She begins each pair as a wax sculpture, hand-carved without CAD or 3D printing, which means your earrings carry subtle organic textures and contours that no machine could replicate. The high-polish finish catches light from every angle, while oxidised detailing adds depth and character that elevates them beyond ordinary studs.
At 8.45 × 12.49 mm, they strike the ideal balance for versatile wear. Notice them at your morning meeting, then transition effortlessly to evening drinks. The secure sterling silver posts and butterfly clasps ensure comfortable all-day wear.
