Betty Stud Earrings

A pair of classic, semi-circular studs, handcrafted in a choice of either 3mm thick gold plated brass or recycled silver. By soldering the silver earring posts at contrasting points on each semi-circle, these simple earrings become more interesting. The sides of these earrings are polished and the flat surfaces are left matte.

Each semi-circle stud earring measures 10mm in height x 5mm in width x 3mm in depth (excluding earring post). These earrings are named after Laura's great aunt Betty.

Names Jewellery began as a side project for the founders of Irish Design Shop; Clare and Laura. It has grown to be an integral part of the business, branching into an independent studio space on neighboring Exchequer Street. Each piece of jewellery, crafted by hand, is named after a woman who inspires Clare and Laura, be they family members, disrupters, or fellow makers.  

We use hard wearing 18ct gold plating when finishing our brass & silver earrings. The plating gives these earrings a luxurious finish.

Each pair of earrings made in recycled silver is hallmarked in the Dublin Assay office, located a short stroll from our workshop in historic Dublin Castle.

Below, you will find our suggestions for jewellery pieces that best compliment these earrings.

Each piece of jewellery is crafted by hand in our neighbouring workshop. We carefully source our raw materials from respected suppliers here in Dublin and use all recycled silver and gold. All waste material generated in the making process goes back to our supplier as scrap metal. Each batch of finished jewellery is hand delivered to our Drury Street shop.
