These 'Leaf Wrap' drop earrings by Lalana are an elegant and organic accessory that captures the beauty of nature. The sterling silver earrings are crafted in the shape of a curving leaf, with sterling silver strands that whirl around and around to create an appealing, textured look. The high-polish finish gives the earrings a radiant glow, making them a perfect accent for any style, from a casual daytime look to a more sophisticated evening ensemble. They are a testament to Lalana's dedication to her craft and her collaboration with over 100 families.
Born in Northern Thailand into a large family of ten siblings, Lalana Thawiaphiradimani grew up with modest means but strong values of perseverance and community. At 18 she left home in search of opportunity, working as a maid before saving enough to pursue her own path. Introduced to Karen hill tribe silver jewelry by her mother’s friend, she quickly fell in love with its intricate motifs and cultural depth. Since 1986, she has dedicated herself to the craft, collaborating with more than 100 families, including Karen silversmiths, to produce jewelry that blends traditional designs with contemporary style. Many of the silver beads feature signature Karen symbols—flowers, fish, and geometric patterns—woven into macramé or minimal jewelry ideal for daily wear. Beyond artistry, Lalana is proud to have created sustainable livelihoods for her collaborators, ensuring that every piece reflects not only heritage and beauty, but also community resilience.
Handcrafted in Thailand from 925 sterling silver, these drop earrings measure 0.4 inches in length and 0.2 inches in width. They have a high-polish finish and secure with posts.
