Jewellery with a history. The next chapter is yours.
Extremely popular and more difficult to find in the large size, these classic bamboo earrings are timeless and elegant. This particular design has been popular for decades. It was Queen Victoria who first popularised bamboo in jewellery because she was fascinated with the orient which was considered very exotic during her reign. She loved symbolism and the strength and longevity of bamboo appealed to her beyond the plant’s aesthetic.
Luxury brand Gucci picked up the baton in the 1920s and cemented the motif’s place in the perpetual fashion archive. These days bamboo jewellery has a cool girl vibe, the symbolism lives on and vintage and antique pieces are highly coveted.
