Handmade by me! Each set of quills are hand selected for color & quality. These are naturally shed African porcupine quills (no animals harmed!), & I hand cut each quill to size (these earrings are about 3" long total, but I'm happy to customize!)
Available in antiqued brass or silver tone hooks. I do have .925 sterling silver, and 18k gold plated over sterling hooks available for an extra fee.
Multiples available, made to order!
Perfectly simple Bohemian touch to any outfit.

I LOVE these! How beautiful! Is it possible to get them with a white gold hook? I have very sensitive ears. :)
rhochimochi
@hillybrooks hello! Thank you so much! Shoot, I don't have any white gold hooks on hand, just .925 sterling silver. I checked around and the hooks are pretty costly to order, almost $50 a pair.. Do you have white gold hooked earrings that you don't wear very often? I could always send the quills without hooks, they're pretty simple to install if you have your own hooks!
hillybrooks
That's ok. I will order them with the sterling hooks. Will you make a listing for me? Also, are they 3 inches including the hook?
rhochimochi
@hillybrooks sounds great! They are 3" quills, but I can customize the length since I hand cut each pair. Did you want 3" total or 3" quills plus hooks? I will make them tomorrow and tag you when they're ready!
hillybrooks
Sweet! I would like the quills to be 3 and 1/2 inches without the hooks. Thank you! So excited!!
rhochimochi
@hillybrooks they are ready! I'm creating the listing now :)

Love these! Makes me homesick. :)
rhochimochi
@karly123 thank you! I love making quill jewelry! Where are you from? :)
karly123
I lived in Africa for a long time. A lot of ladies wore these, and they are so elegant and edgy. :)
spookyheartsg
How long is the average quill? Wow what do these felt like? Rock? Of feather soft? Were animals hurts during this process
rhochimochi
@spookyheartsg hello! Nope, no animals are harmed! African porcupines naturally shed their quills, then they are just collected from the ground! They are flexible and very lightweight, made out of the same material as our nails and hair.
rhochimochi
@spookyheartsg The quills range in size depending on what part of the porcupine they come from, but the quills I use vary in length from 10 inches to 14 inches! I cut the pointed tips off for these earrings and then use the rest for necklaces (which I keep meaning to list on Poshmark!)
spookyheartsg
Are tgese polished have an enamel over them ? Im sure its more than picking up quills off the ground, are they hard to u r thry heavy very nice
rhochimochi
@spookyheartsg they are all natural! No enamel, just the natural texture. Feels like if you rub your fingernails. They are collected and then cleaned! So light, not heavy at all :)
mlynnemarie
