Handmade Glass Stud Earrings – Frosted Opal Whisky Bottle

Small, quietly striking and packed with story, these handmade glass stud earrings have a soft frosted opal finish that catches the light like sea glass on a Scottish beach. They sit neatly on the ear in a pale, milky tone that works with everything, making them a lovely little birthday gift or a thoughtful stocking filler for someone who loves a piece with meaning.

Helen Chalmers makes every pair herself in her Scottish studio, melting glass in a torch flame in a technique known as lampworking. For the 'We Were A Whisky Bottle' range, she breaks up Scottish whisky bottles and melts the glass down bit by bit, giving these studs a second life as jewellery. Each pair is then tumbled with sand for that gentle matte, frosted finish.

• Handmade in Scotland by Helen Chalmers using lampworking
• Glass reclaimed from a Scottish whisky bottle, frosted to a sea glass effect
• Surgical steel posts, a hypoallergenic metal
• Glass size varies between 4 and 6mm, consistent within each pair
• Presented on a card reading 'We were a whisky bottle'
