The Birds Earrings
The Birds Earrings
Divided by nations, united by gesture.
Aeolus captures a rebellious spirit through a classic gesture as a pair of earrings, but immortalised in bones form dangling elegantly from our signature organic forms—testament to its ancient origins.
This gesture, known as "katapygon" in ancient Greece, serves as a potent symbol of protest and independence. Its first recorded appearance was in Aristophanes' play "The Clouds" from 423 BC, where it signified disrespect from a student towards his teacher. Safe to say, this tradition is still going strong globally today.
- Hallmarked in the United Kingdom at the London Assay Office

Jewellery Care
Jewellery Care
EVERYDAY WEAR
To preserve the polish of your jewellery, remove your jewellery when cleaning, bathing and swimming, and always keep away from any source of heat.
Avoid direct contact with water and chemical products. Household cleaning products, bleach, make-up, soap, perfume and hair-spray may dull the finish of your jewellery and cause discolouration or oxidation of the metal.
Please handle your jewellery with
care and avoid collision with hard surfaces, as it could change and damage the shape of the jewellery.
Kindly note that layering a ring
with another ring can cause wear and tear.
Silver might oxidise over time. To avoid this as much as possible, gently wipe your jewellery clean with a soft cloth after each wear to remove any dirt or oils that accumulate during wearing.
STORING YOUR JEWELLERY
We commend that you store your jewellery individually in its Aeolus Studio pouch for safekeeping. This
also helps against the jewellery being exposure to direct sunlight.
CLEANING YOUR JEWELLERY
Clean your jewellery with warm water and detergent free soap, or with a professional cleaning kit. Furthermore, we recommend your jewellery to be cleaned by a professional jeweller once a year to have it last longer.
