100% Brass, Tarnish Resistant: Brass Earrings

EcoDunia brass earrings are handmade by local artisans in the slums of Kibera. Every pair is 100% recycled brass with a nano-ceramic e-coat, tarnish-resistant, water-resistant, and won't turn your skin green.

The brass develops a patina over time. That's not a flaw; that's the material aging the way real metal does.

Hoops, drops, studs, and dangles- all earrings under $50. Some styles add horn, bone, or soapstone for a finish you won't find anywhere at this price point.

Unique Handmade Earrings: One of a Kind, Every Time

If you're searching for unique handmade earrings that stand apart from anything on the high street, this collection delivers. Each pair of artisanal earrings is shaped by hand, meaning no two pieces are exactly alike. The subtle variations in texture, weight, and finish are what make handmade brass jewelry genuinely different from anything factory-made.

From unusual handmade earrings with geometric silhouettes to handmade statement earrings for women featuring hammered textures and organic curves, the range covers bold, minimal, and everything in between. Styles like our hammered brass earrings, brass leaf earrings, and teardrop brass earrings for women are among the most popular for customers looking for one-of-a-kind statement earrings handmade and unique to their personal style.

Earring Styles for Every Taste

OurBrass Hoop Earrings

Our hoops range from small and clean to wide geometric loops, each hammered by hand so the surface catches light differently than a machined finish does. Lightweight enough to wear all day.

Drop and Dangle Earrings

Drop-and-dangle: teardrop, leaf, bar, disc, and abstract shapes; each pair designed to move. Most of the drop and dangle styles are under 2 inches, making them light enough for cartilage posts and second piercings.

Stud Earrings

Geometric, disc, and dome studs for everyday wear. The ones that work closest to the ear are clean, low-profile, and built from the same 100% brass as the longer styles.

Men's Brass Earrings

Bold rings, spikes, and geometric drops designed for any ear. The same solid brass, same e-coat, same tarnish-resistant finish, just a different silhouette.

Natural Accents: Bone, Horn, and Organic Brass Earrings

Some of our earrings pair brass with a second material: carved soapstone, natural horn, or bone. Each one brings a different texture to the brass:

Bone (Koa earrings, Shela earrings): pale and smooth, with a natural grain that shows through the finish. The Koa and Shela styles use bone accents to break up the brass with something that feels earthy without being heavy.
Horn (Lulu, Lila, Luna, Lozi): lightweight and warm to the touch. Natural horn has its own grain pattern, so every piece reads slightly different. The horn tips and accents are shaped to contrast with the brass without competing with it.
Soapstone (Nusu earrings): smooth, matte, and carved by hand. Soapstone takes dye well, which is why the Nusu styles come in deeper, richer tones than most of the brass-only pieces. No two stones are cut identically.

All natural accent styles are under $50. Care differs slightly from brass-only styles; see the FAQ below.

Smooth Brass Cross Drop Earrings | Cross Ecodunia

Lightweight Comfort Built for Everyday Wear

All of our unique handmade earrings are designed with wearability in mind. Brass is naturally lightweight, making it ideal for longer earring styles, including long brass earrings, brass dangle earrings, and drop styles that would feel heavy in other materials. The warm golden tone of raw brass earrings and golden brass earrings means they pair with virtually any outfit without clashing.

Many styles in this collection work as cartilage earrings, giving you the freedom to build an ear stack that feels personal. From minimalist brass earrings as a subtle upper lobe option to bold brass hoop earrings as a main statement, the collection supports creative stacking and individual expression.

Each pair is finished with secure, comfortable earring backs suitable for daily wear. Our handmade fashion earrings are made to be worn, not just displayed.

Unique Handmade Earrings Under $50

Every pair is handmade by Kenyan artisans in our own workshop. EcoDunia is a Verified Fair Trade brand: real wages, real craft, made by hand from start to finish. At an accessible price point, all under $50.

FAQs

Will brass earrings tarnish?

The e-coat resists tarnish, but brass naturally develops a patina underneath over time. That's proof of real material, not a flaw. To restore shine, polish with a soft cloth. Avoid prolonged submersion.

Are brass earrings safe for sensitive ears?

Our earrings are finished with a nano ceramic e-coat, which acts as a barrier between the brass and your skin. Most customers with metal sensitivities wear them without issue, but if you have a known nickel allergy, test with a shorter wear first.

How do I care for horn or bone accent styles?

Wipe with a damp cloth rather than submerging. Avoid leaving them in direct sunlight for extended periods, natural horn and bone can dry out and crack with prolonged heat exposure. A small amount of natural oil (coconut or jojoba) applied occasionally keeps the horn and bone conditioned.

What's the difference between brass-only and natural accent styles?

Brass-only styles are finished with the same nano ceramic e-coat across the whole piece. Horn, bone, and soapstone accents are natural materials with their own grain and texture, they're not coated, so each one looks slightly different and requires slightly more care.
