These earrings certainly come with a great story. Dean Robertson hand sets, hand cuts, and hand crafts his stunning earrings using everything from reclaimed wood to pinecones to resin. Can you imagine people’s faces when you tell them your earring is made from a slice of a tree branch encased in resin? They will be so jealous and you’ll wish you bought multiple pair!
Material: box elder wood, buckeye wood, miscellaneous hardwood rounds, resin, hypoallergenic surgical steel ear wire
Size: 1-2.5”
These eye-catching earrings are handmade in Washington by Dean Robertson of Forest Life Creations.
Dean says that all of his unique jewelry is inspired by the voices within the wood. Deep in the old growth forest of South East Alaska, Dean learned to see the small things in nature and turn them into lasting, wearable works of art. He uses mostly reclaimed wood in his process and has made and sold over 40,000 earrings since reclaiming his own life from drugs, homelessness, and isolation.
As he once told a sad woman whose tree had died and was being cut down, “I can give your tree new life!” And this is a motto he lives by.
