Raffia cherry earrings
Cherries have their habits: always in good company.
- Natural raffia, hand-dyed the artisanal way. It is the strands of natural raffia that snap easily as they are worked, which makes the crochet slow and precise - but once crocheted, woven or sewn, the piece becomes very strong and long-lasting, and barely sensitive to water. Each fruit is also stuffed with its own raffia offcuts, never synthetic foam. Crochet is one of the only techniques in the world that no machine can replicate - these jewels could not be made any other way. Set on gold-tone stainless steel hoops, 8 mm to 1 cm.
- Two cherries crocheted round, joined by a hand-knotted stem.
- Crocheted then assembled into jewellery, piece by piece, by hand.
- An ultra-light jewel that makes itself felt - right there on the ear, yet no weight at all even after several hours.
- Made in small numbers, in Guéliz; the two cherries never fall as twins.
Description
Cherry raffia earrings that add a fruity finishing touch to everyday outfits. The motif is instantly recognisable, while the raffia texture gives it a character of its own. Keep things simple with a T-shirt or plain dress, or add other fruity touches without trying to match everything.
The story
The first guests
The first cherries of the season have a knack for catching your eye before you have even finished shopping. At YZA, they keep that talent and find a place beside your face. No need to wait for the season to invite them along.
An ultra-light jewel that makes itself felt - right there on the ear, yet no weight at all even after several hours.

Raffia needs no special care. Avoid water; if it gets wet, dry in open air away from direct sunlight. Avoid prolonged sun exposure to preserve the colours. The gold-tone hoops are stainless steel.
Packaging : Gift-ready: the piece comes in a pretty black box signed YZA, and the first name of the artisan who made it is written on the hand tag.
