These classic Monarch earrings honor the quiet moments between flights - wings folded in rest, gathering strength for the next journey. Capturing the butterfly at its most peaceful, the design celebrates those essential pauses when we stop, breathe, and simply exist before moving forward again. At 2.5 inches, the intricate wing patterns create visual interest without overwhelming, subtle enough for everyday wear yet distinctive enough to feel special. Wear them as a reminder that transformation happens in the pauses - the quiet moments when we stop striving and allow the change to settle in. Choose bright sterling silver for luminous elegance or oxidized sterling silver for dramatic depth. Part of the Imaginal Cell Collection.

For honoring the in-between times, the moments of recharging before you take flight again.

BRIGHT STERLING SILVER
Your piece is sealed to prevent natural oxidation, but sterling silver will eventually develop some tarnish over time - it's just what silver does. The good news? It's easy to restore.

Daily Wear:
Silver is durable and meant to be worn. In fact, wearing it regularly helps prevent tarnish.

Cleaning:
When you notice any tarnish, simply polish with a soft silver polishing cloth to restore the shine. For textured areas, a soft brush with warm soapy water works well. Dry thoroughly.

OXIDIZED STERLING SILVER
Your piece features a dramatic black oxidized finish that's been sealed to preserve the rich, dark patina. This finish is durable but needs gentler handling than bright silver.

Cleaning:
Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use silver polish - it will remove the black finish. For deeper cleaning, use only warm water with mild soap and a very soft cloth. Pat dry immediately.

Diamonds: Carefully clean with rubbing alcohol

BOTH, BRIGHT AND OXIDIZED SILVER

Remove Before Sleep
Taking your jewelry on and off becomes a sweet daily ritual - a moment to honor both the piece and yourself.

Water & Moisture:
Remove before swimming (chlorine accelerates tarnish), bathing, applying make-up or lotion.

What to Skip:
Take off before applying lotions, perfumes, hairspray, or household cleaning products. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cleaners.

Storage:
Keep in a soft pouch provided with your jewelry or a lined jewelry box.

Water & Moisture:
Fine for occasional hand-washing - just gently pat dry. Remove before swimming, bathing, or prolonged water exposure to preserve the sealed finish.
What to Skip:
Avoid silver polishing cloths, harsh chemicals, abrasive materials, and ultrasonic cleaners - these can damage the oxidized surface. Remove before lotions, perfumes, or household cleaning.
Storage:
Store in a soft pouch away from other jewelry to prevent scratches.

That's it. Wear your silver, enjoy it, and it'll stay beautiful.

Artist's Statement

The Imaginal Cell Butterfly Collection

When a caterpillar experiences metamorphosis, it must first come to terms with its mortality. Amorphous cells, known as Imaginal Cells, multiply within the chrysalis, impervious to the caterpillar’s immune system. When the Imaginal Cells finally reach critical mass, the defeated caterpillar accepts its mortal fate, and metamorphosis begins. At this point, the newly awakened cells band together, transform, and become the mysterious creature that we know as “butterfly.”

The Imaginal Cell Collection honors the transformative, creative process of not knowing. Sometimes we must let go of the traditional constructs we “understand” to discover something new and beautiful within ourselves. This body of work deconstructs the geometric forms of the iconic monarch wing, transforming them into unexpected patterns and celebrating nature’s symmetry.

We are the sum of our own imaginations. Letting go is the seed to metamorphosis.
