The Palmetto Bug is often an unwelcome guest in Charleston, South Carolina. Croghan's Jewel Box fourth-generation jeweler and Charleston native, Mini, says "in Charleston you look up and see church steeples and look down and see cockroaches; they are a part of our city." Taking inspiration from the Holy City's resident pests and Edgar Allen Poe's famous story "Goldbug", Mini gilded the bugs, elevating them to an art form that is proudly worn by Charleston residents and visitors alike.These Goldbug Large Drop Earrings are a fun and unique touch for any outfit!

I've never felt so cool!
These earrings are the perfect balance of funky and chic. Expect to get a lot of questions about/compliments on them! They are also very lightweight for how large they are.

The bug collection by Mini " Mariana Hay of Charleston is so unique. I wasn’t sure at first about wearing “Palmetto” bugs on my ears but I have owned these for just over 3 months now and receive compliments every time I wear them. To be honest, my husband and most of my friends think they look more like cicadas. They show up beautifully and are lightweight. Being married in Charleston they hold s special place in my heart and in my closet 😄
These critters get a lot of compliments!
I recently wore these on a trip both during the day with a black sweater and in the evening with a black cocktail dress and received so many compliments! Very easy to dress up or down and people don't really notice that they're bugs until they get up close and then they love them even more!
