A little contrast changes everything. These WAIWAI statement earrings pair warm gold Japanese glass beads with hand-cut black leather for a graphic mix of shimmer and edge.
Fine strands of tiny beads fall from the sculptural leather top in loose, overlapping loops, with a few ends left free to create that wonderfully imperfect WAIWAI movement. The black grounds the gold, making these less traditionally glamorous and a little more modern—easy with an all-black wardrobe, but just as good against washed neutrals and earthy layers.
Hand-assembled and remarkably lightweight, they make a statement without feeling like you’re wearing one.
