Fish Scale & Crystal Drop Earrings | Handmade in El Salvador by 16 Nuditos

These earrings are built from unexpected materials — and that's exactly what makes them special. The white petals are crafted from fish scales, a technique rooted in traditional Latin American artisanship that transforms a humble material into something luminous and delicate. Up close they shimmer like mother of pearl. The crystal bead cluster adds a burst of color that makes the whole piece feel alive.

These are a statement — style accordingly:

Wear your hair up — at 2.5 inches, these deserve to be seen.
With white or cream — the petals practically glow against light fabrics.
With a simple outfit — these are the statement. Let them lead.
Special occasions — weddings, quinceañeras, celebrations, cultural events.
Gift-ready — truly one of a kind, and completely unforgettable.

16 Nuditos — which translates to "16 knots" — is a brother-sister jewelry brand based in San Salvador, El Salvador. The name is a nod to where they started: handcrafted knotted bracelets, made with patience and skill. From those early knots grew a full jewelry practice specializing in wire wrapped designs.

Every piece they make carries the same spirit as those first bracelets — made by hand, made with care, and rooted in the craft of two siblings who turned a shared passion into something lasting.
