A Close-Up of the Microcosm – A New Chapter in the Plantis Collection
The Plantis collection offers a whole floral meadow: from chamomile and pansies to poppies. In its latest edition, the jewelry herbarium welcomes new residents from beneath flower petals, field grasses, and forest floors – insects. Despite their tiny size, they play a huge role in the ecosystem. This series of pins and earrings in the shape of bugs was born from a desire to take a closer look at the insect world. Ladybugs, flies, and bark beetles have been invited into the ORSKA studio and transformed into colorful jewelry. The armor of grasshoppers, potato beetles, and spiders has been painted in metallic shades that mimic the iridescent bodies of real insects. Metal wings, legs, and antennae were crafted with meticulous detail to spark curiosity and shine a light on this often-overlooked realm of nature.
Fly-Shaped Pin
The graphite-colored fly is cast in brass. Its body has been oxidized to achieve a dark, navy-blue hue. The insect’s wings are golden and polished to a high shine, revealing their delicate, openwork structure that gives the design an airy feel. Once dismissed as unworthy of artistic admiration, the fly here becomes a refined jewelry sculpture thanks to the faithful rendering of its minute anatomical features.
You’ll also find fly-shaped earrings in the Plantis collection, which pair perfectly with this clutch-fastened pin to create a cohesive set suitable for various styles.
Playing with Form and Insects – How to Style the Fly Pin
The fly pin works best when combined with other insects from the Plantis collection. Surrounded by shimmering mosquitoes and fireflies, this graphite fly will breathe life into many looks. This piece is perfect for those who enjoy playful designs and appreciate beauty in unexpected places. Insect pins shine brightest against simple backgrounds—white shirts, solid trench coats, or plain dresses—allowing the bugs to truly “spread their wings.”
