Rosa carolina

These delicate earrings are cast from a tiny rose thorn to give you just a glint of silver.

The Carolina Rose is native to North America and grows throughout the continental United States in dry prairies, open woods and thickets. It is now often cultivated. It blooms with fragrant, light pink flowers in May and June that bees love. Later in the summer it yields edible rose hips. The straight, sharp thorns distinguish it from several other similar species.

Recycled sterling silver with sterling silver posts and backings.
