“...rural people exchanged bunches of Sichuan peppercorns as love tokens” and “the spice is still imbued with erotic symbolism because of the way its berries hang in pairs, like testicles.” - Fuchsia Dunlop

Crafted by the talented Doris Chou-Durfee 周雅立 of AMULET by D, you can now dress up your ears with these classy green sichuan pepper lantern earrings.

Fitted with Semi-precious gem peridot gem briolettes and set with silk, and sterling silver posts, the clean lines of these modern earrings are sure to delight as a gift or for your next dinner party!   

Peridot is associated with strength, balance, and peace!

Note from Doris:This collaboration with 50Hertz is close to my heart, not just because I love good food but also because i’m a devoted fan and consumer of 50Hertz products. Keeping in mind how fragrant and fresh these peppers are, I designed each limited edition piece to showcase the beauty of Sichuan pepper. Each small branch and bud carries great potential and intense flavor, and my designs serve as a reminder to cherish the small joys in life. I hope you enjoy them!

Measurements:

2 inches length, 3/4 inch at widest point
