Abeni — a Yoruba name: "we asked for her, and she is ours".

A small woven drum, coiled flat at the base and left open at the top, hung from a length of undyed raffia so the cord reads natural against the dyed basket. These hand-woven raffia statement earrings swing a little as you move and weigh almost nothing, finished with hypoallergenic stainless steel ear wires for all-day wear.

Materials: Natural hand-dyed raffia, stainless steel ear wires

Design: Woven drum basket on an undyed raffia cord

Origin: Handcrafted in Nigeria

Editions

  • Malachite Teal — blue-green, cool against warm skin
  • Raspberry Pink — a saturated berry, more fruit than flower

Care

Keep dry. Raffia is a plant fibre — water, perfume and hairspray will dull the colour. Store flat or hanging, not crushed at the bottom of a bag. If a piece flattens, press it gently back into shape with your fingers; the fibre has memory.

Coiled by hand, so no two drums sit exactly the same.

Fit & Sizing

All pieces are cut for a relaxed fit. Our model wears a size M and stands 5’7”.

These are body measurements, not garment measurements.

Adire is hand-dyed cotton. It softens with wear and may relax slightly after the first washes.

Care

Hand-wash cold with mild soap. No tumble-dry. Iron inside-out on medium heat. Expect slight dye release during the first washes, a natural characteristic of hand-dyed textiles that stabilizes with use.
