Each golden sphere is shaped by hand from naturally gilded stems harvested in the Brazilian cerrado.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eThe name Jacare comes from Tupi and means caiman, an iconic creature of Brazil's waterways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGolden sphere and amber stone drop earrings: what happens when two natural materials meet?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese drop earrings play on the contrast between the golden capim dourado sphere and the warm roundness of a brown-amber stone bead. The result is a piece that draws the eye without trying too hard, thanks to balanced volumes and natural colour harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe woven sphere catches light differently at every angle, shifting between bright and muted golden tones. Paired with the depth of the amber stone, it creates a warm interplay of hues. Both elements hang from a push-back silver post via a delicate chain, swaying gently with your every movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy does capim dourado shine naturally?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCapim dourado, or golden grass (Syngonanthus nitens), is a plant whose flower stems display a naturally metallic golden sheen. This colour comes from the microscopic structure of the stems — no dye, no chemical treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fibre grows in the wetlands of the Jalapao region, Tocantins, central Brazil. Each year, stems are harvested after natural drying without harming the plant. To create the Jacare sphere, artisans weave these dried stems by hand around a buriti palm thread. The process is entirely manual, so every sphere shows subtle variations that reflect genuine craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the features of this piece of jewellery?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"oo-specs\"\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Capim dourado (Syngonanthus nitens)\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e: Drop earrings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Woven sphere hanging below an amber-toned stone bead\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStones or beads\u003c\/strong\u003e: Round natural stone bead in brown-amber tones\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFittings\u003c\/strong\u003e: Silver-toned push-back posts, small silver-toned linking chain\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCraftsmanship\u003c\/strong\u003e: Handmade, hand-woven\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: Jalapao region, Tocantins, Brazil\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReference\u003c\/strong\u003e: B410\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrice\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27.92 EUR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow can you style these capim dourado earrings?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jacare earrings suit everyday wear and special occasions alike.

However, the metal fittings (push-back posts, linking chain) may contain metals. If you are sensitive, test the earrings for a short period first. The woven sphere and the stone bead themselves are perfectly inert against the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eHow does the weight of capim dourado compare to metal?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eCapim dourado is a plant-based material, significantly lighter than any metal used in jewellery. You will barely feel the Jacare earrings even after a full day of wear. The golden lustre of metal without its weight — that is one of the key advantages of this natural fibre for drop earrings worn for hours at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eDoes capim dourado lose its colour over time?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe golden colour is entirely natural, with no dye involved. Over time, the sheen may develop a slight patina, taking on warmer, deeper tones. This is not deterioration but a natural evolution, much like the patina on leather. Store your earrings away from moisture and prolonged direct sunlight to preserve the original lustre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Oroona","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57527005675868,"sku":"B410","price":27.92,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/2383\/4716\/files\/boucles-oreilles-jacare-oeil-de-tigre-capim-dourado.jpg?v=1778359957","url":"https:\/\/oroona.com\/en\/products\/jacare-earrings-in-and-amber-stone","provider":"Oroona","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
