Product Story
These small stunning earrings are crafted from gleaming .950 sterling silver and inspired by the legendary tale of the Muiraquitã. Handmade in Brazil, these earrings capture the essence of the ancient legend and offer a touch of magic to your daily look.
The Muiraquitã is a good luck charm for people from the Amazon forest. It is said that the indigenous people who inhabited the banks of the Amazon River created these batrachians on moonlit nights. The beautiful Indian women would go to a nearby lake, dive into its waters, and retrieve beautiful stones from the bottom of the lake. They would then quickly mold the stones into frog-like shapes, offering them as gifts to their loved ones. The belief was that the Muiraquitã would bring good luck and happiness to the warriors.
The charming design features a plump, green frog, created using a combination of resin and Paraense incrustation to produce a vivid color. Each earring is a perfect representation of the traditional Muiraquitã talisman, said to bring happiness and good fortune to its wearer.
With its rich cultural heritage and undeniable allure, this earring is the ideal choice for anyone looking to add a touch of mystery and wonder to their collection. Whether you're a collector of rare and unusual pieces, or simply love unique and meaningful jewelry, these earrings are sure to become a cherished part of your collection.

Care Guide
Cleaning: Regularly clean your earrings to prevent the buildup of dirt and grime. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently wipe the surface of the earrings. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that may damage the resin or incrustation.
Avoid Water Exposure: While the legend involves diving into waters to retrieve stones, it's important to avoid exposing your earrings to water unnecessarily. Remove them before swimming, showering, or participating in water activities to prevent damage.
