Product Story

Similar to the necklace this .925 silver earring features an exclusive local inlay technique found only in northern Brazil. The intricate design comes to life with mineral pigments from the stunning malachite stone, creating a colorful and vibrant piece that is sure to captivate anyone who lays their eyes upon it.

Inspired by the legendary muiraquitã, a small frog that holds a special place in the hearts of those living in the Amazon region, this earring pays homage to the local folklore. According to the tales, the muiraquitã was crafted by indigenous people residing along the banks of the Amazon River. On moonlit nights, when the land was bathed in a soft, warm glow, these people would dive into a nearby lake to search for the most beautiful stones. They would swiftly shape these stones into small talismanic frogs and offer them to their loved ones, who would wear them as earrings for good luck on their endeavors.

Even today, many people believe in the power of the muiraquitã and consider it a lucky charm that brings happiness and joy to its possessor. This earring represents a modern interpretation of this timeless tradition, merging the rich cultural heritage of the Amazon region with the craftsmanship and beauty of silver jewelry. Whether you're seeking a special piece to wear on an occasion or simply looking to add a touch of color to your everyday style, this .925 silver earring is certain to bring you happiness and good luck wherever you go.
