Bone Earrings
Bone Earrings
The Bone Earrings are part of an exclusive jewelry series created in collaboration with the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum. This piece was inspired by Pelvis III, painted by O'Keeffe in 1944.
O'Keeffe collected bones in the New Mexico desert, often framing the sky through the hollow of a sun-bleached pelvis. I’ve always been deeply moved by this series and the way the bones feel like portals, connecting the earth and the sky.

Care Guide
Our jewelry is carefully handmade with fine materials. Like any art, care must be taken to ensure its longevity. Here are two tips that will make a huge impact:
1) Remove your jewelry before any activity that exposes the metal to moisture or physical damage. Think gardening, hot tubs, hot springs, or intense physical activities.
2) Store your jewelry in a dry place. The bathroom is the worst place for this. Your bedroom is a safer bet, and a jewelry bag or even a zip-lock with an anti-tarnish strip would also work great.
SOLID GOLD
Resistant to water, sweat and any other element.
To clean, use a polishing cloth, or soak in lukewarm water with a few drops of mild soap. Use your fingers or a soft cloth to rub off any dirt and dry thoroughly. Keep in a dry place.
STERLING SILVER
Exposure to air and moisture may cause sterling silver to tarnish more rapidly. The textures and forms on our jewelry will become more defined with this natural patina, but if you wish to return the jewelry to its original finish, please use a gentle jewelry polishing cloth.
To clean and remove oxidization, use a polishing cloth. We like Sunshine Clothes which you can find on Amazon. Follow directions carefully when using them and only rub lightly. Keep in a dry place.
14K GOLD VERMEIL
The plaiting durability will depend on the wearer's usage and body sweat. Some bodies are more prone to sweat than others and may fade faster. For best results, do not expose your jewelry directly when exercising, showering, washing your hands, gardening, or anything with chemicals and/or abrasive material.
To clean, gently rub and polish with a soft cloth or microfiber cloth. Do not use a polishing cloth. Keep in a dry place. Reach out if you need your jewelry to be re-dipped.
UPGRADE TO SOLID GOLD
Love your Salt Grass piece and want to upgrade it to solid gold? No problem. We offer an easy upgrade program: trade in your used Salt Grass jewelry and pay the difference for a solid gold version. We’ll recycle your original, well-loved piece, and you’ll walk away with a solid gold version of the design you already know and love.
