Luna Moth Earrings
$30.00

Soft, ethereal, and inspired by moonlit gardens, these handcrafted luna moth and butterfly earrings are sculpted from polymer clay with intricate wing details and elegant trailing tails. The green pair is inspired by the mystical luna moth, a symbol of renewal and gentle transformation, while the mauve design (currently out of stock) evokes a romantic butterfly or woodland moth—whichever your heart sees when they flutter.

Each pair is carefully detailed with raised textures, delicate accents, and floral touches, making every set feel like a tiny piece of wearable magic. Despite their dramatic shape, they’re surprisingly lightweight and comfortable for all-day wear.

Finished on gold-plated, nickel-free hooks, these earrings are ideal for sensitive ears and perfect for fairy lovers, cottagecore dreamers, and anyone drawn to whimsical, nature-inspired jewelry.
