These Nene Goose Stud Earrings feature Hawaii's native goose, with its distinctive dark face, patterned neck and warm brown plumage. Hand-painted on sustainably sourced wood, the little birds make an unusual addition to any wildlife jewellery collection.

Finished with hypoallergenic stainless steel posts, these lightweight studs are comfortable for everyday wear. They make a lovely gift for bird lovers, birdwatchers and goose enthusiasts, especially anyone with an interest in Hawaiian wildlife or lesser-known bird species. A great choice for birthdays, Christmas or a small treat for yourself.

The nene, also known as the Hawaiian goose, is Hawaii's state bird and one of the rarest goose species in the world. Unlike many other geese, it has adapted to life on volcanic slopes and grasslands, with partially webbed feet that help it walk across uneven ground. Once pushed close to extinction, the nene has made an encouraging recovery thanks to decades of conservation work.
