Raffia lemon earrings
A little zest for an ordinary day.
- 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.
- The yellow comes from dyed raffia, crocheted tight then stuffed with raffia to hold its full round shape.
- 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; each lemon has its own little roundness.
Description
Lemon raffia earrings, a fruity detail to wear with crisp white or plenty of colour. The citrus motif and raffia texture create a noticeable detail without requiring a whole new outfit. A shirt, T-shirt or simple dress makes an easy backdrop.
The story
The lemon moves out
In Marrakech, a lemon is never short of things to do. This one left the kitchen to the others and joined the YZA wardrobe. Still full of character, but with absolutely no intention of putting the squeeze on your day.
An ultra-light jewel that makes itself felt - right there on the ear, yet no weight at all even after several hours.
Crocheted then assembled into jewellery, piece by piece, by hand.
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.
