These small Runic stud earrings in sterling silver feature runic text on a curved design. Each earring reads Orkney and is hand-enamelled in ‘Storm’ enamel in our Orkney workshop.

Sheilas iconic Runic collection was inspired by inscriptions found inside Maeshowe, a Neolithic chambered cairn in Orkney, built around 2800 BC. Sometime around the 12th century, Vikings broke into the tomb and carved runes on the wallstheir version of modern-day graffiti. Over thirty inscriptions have survived and represent the largest single collection of such carvings in the world.
