Waku Waku Stud Earrings
Why We Love It
Inspired by the energy and movement of Japanese calligraphy, KALNAMās ćććć (waku waku) earrings reinterpret the Japanese word for excitement into wearable art. Carefully crafted from recycled aluminum, each featherlight piece pairs a brushed gold disc with a delicate lilac design to highlight its playful form.
Fusing tradition with modern design, these earrings add a distinctive accent to any outfit without compromising on comfort, and they also make a thoughtful gift for anyone who appreciates sustainable fashion or Japanese craftsmanship.
Why Choose Jewelry from KALNAM?
Founded by Tokyo-based designer Kanako Matsuo ā an alumna of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp and a former Issey Miyake designer ā KALNAM transforms industrial aluminum offcuts into refined, wearable works of art. Sourced from Ashikaga City in Tochigi Prefecture, these aluminum fragments are typically discarded due to their irregular shapes, making them unsuitable for mass production. However, Matsuo sees their uniqueness as an opportunity ā each piece is hand-dyed and sculpted to embrace the materialās natural curves, creating jewelry that is not only lightweight and durable but also rich in character. By repurposing this high-quality metal, KALNAM redefines sustainability in jewelry, proving that beauty can emerge from overlooked materials.
