Lunar Brass Leaves | handmade Polymer Clay Earrings

NOTE: These truly unique earrings are one-of-a-kind as the designer only made this exact pair!

About the Designer
Filthy Mari Atelier, an AAPI woman-owned small business, came to life during the pandemic in the founder's NYC kitchen. Marisa's usual work as an event contractor disappeared during lockdown and one day, after almost a year of trying to find her way, she decided to get curious and have fun. She invested in some supplies and let her creative and artistic side run wild, and as a girl whose time spent with Play-Doh, it's really paying off. She's so grateful to have found something to help her work through through anxieties. Now she has the space to make the things she loves that hopefully you will, too. Always made with love, care and attention to detail and thankfully now in a proper work area, she has since moved into the corner of her bedroom, where she made a corner office. This shop is eco-friendly, uses recyclable/reusable packaging, is minimum waste and donates a portion of proceeds to charity.

HWIS Connection: Eva Hsu (HWIS Parent, Mandarin Grade 1 & Preschool 3s) discovered Filthy Mari Atelier at a Hell's Kitchen pop-up shop and immediately connected with the whimsical designs by this local Asian designer. She has purchased several of her colorful earrings already, and HWISPA-NJ was thrilled that this small business was willing and able to donate some pieces to our NJ silent auction!

We created LAOLAO STUDIOS to share this joy; to bring the warmth and tenderness these pieces carry far and wide, and to support the grandmother artisans in our ancestral city. With every stitch, we communicate the essence of family bonds, weaving together feelings of love to ensure these heirlooms are forever cherished and, eventually, passed on.

About the Brand
In Mandarin, laolao is an affectionate term for maternal grandmothers--and our story begins with my mother (my two children's loving laolao).

Separated from her first newborn grandchild by the isolated state of the world in 2020, she used her lifelong love of knitting to bind the family together. Her pieces were woven with the shared history of the other grandmothers in her knitting circle, as they taught each other new techniques, bonding over this meticulous craft and the joy it brought to their loved ones.

xoxo, Chloe
