Kalyna Earrings
Inspired by traditional Ukrainian amulets, the Kalyna earrings reinterpret ancient symbolism in a bold yet refined contemporary form.
In Ukrainian culture, jewellery often carries the meaning of an oberig — a protective object believed to give strength, guard its wearer, and guide travellers safely home. Coral, traditionally associated with vitality and protection, has been used in Ukrainian adornment for centuries.
The small cross element is one of the oldest protective symbols, representing the union of maternal and paternal energies, the four cardinal directions, and the harmony of natural elements. Here, it appears in a discreet, modern form that feels symbolic rather than religious.
Designed to move gently with the wearer, Kalyna earrings add warmth and depth to minimalist outfits while carrying a quiet, meaningful presence.
