Celebrating Filipino Heritage Jewellery by Amami Philippines
We are proud to bring a selection of Amami's bestselling handmade, artisanal, and traditional pieces to Australia. Amami creations are an exemplar of the art of filigree, an indigenous technique where fine metal threads are expertly twisted and molded to form a beautiful, intricate design. Amami pieces are a Filipino legacy to be shared and celebrated between generations.
Claudia Creolla Earrings
Named after an artisan's grandmother, the Claudia Creolla holds a special place in our hearts as the very first creolla Amami has ever made!
This traditional design may bring back memories of your childhood, seeing your Lola or mother fondly wearing and looking elegant in earrings resembling the Claudia. Some of you are reminded of similar jewelry while curiously shuffling through your Lola's aparador.
Our team decided to preserve its original look, only making several adjustments to ensure easier wear and an improved fit for the modern Filipina.
Our Claudia Creolla is a testament that timeless pieces truly never go out of style.
