Mini Kitty earrings

These delicate Kitty hoop earrings are formed in 1.5mm square wire. The polished elements reflect light and complement the matte finish. A joy to wear, they move with the wearer and have a lovely tactile quality. Available in a choice of silver or 9ct gold, our Kitty earrings create impact while remaining lightweight and super comfortable to wear. If your preference is for a larger earring, Kitty is available in a more statement size here. Each earring measures 2.5cm in diameter, hanging off a 4mm circular stud. These earrings are named after Kitty MacCormack, a Donegal weaver who was part of Muriel Gahan's cooperative movement of the 1930's.   

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.

Each pair of earrings made in silver and gold is hallmarked in the Dublin Assay office, located a short stroll from our workshop in historic Dublin Castle. The stamps include our unique makers mark of CGD followed by the unique Dublin marks.

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.
