These are inspired by the dried husks and fruits of Chinese Lantern (Physalis alkekengi, aka Winter Cherries) flowers.

I create these from lightweight, clear and marbled acrylic, then attach hypoallergenic titanium posts.

Have plugs? I can convert this earring design (without the top post element) to use a hinged steel infinity loop that can slide through a standard tunnel plug. This allows you to use your own tunnels that are comfortable for your ears.
