Rice & Bean Earrings

Inspired by The Remembering, these handcrafted statement earrings honor Haiti's rich agricultural heritage and the enduring relationship between land, labor, and memory. Featuring rice and red beans—staple ingredients deeply rooted in Haitian culture—each pair transforms everyday commodities into wearable art. The earrings invite reflection on food, migration, ancestry, and the agricultural traditions that have sustained generations of Haitian families. Lightweight yet bold, they serve as both an adornment and a conversation piece, connecting personal memory with collective history.
