These beautiful stud earrings have been designed exclusively for the Whitworth to accompany the exhibition Beneath The Great Wave.

The Mountain and Me is a Lancashire local studio producing sustainable, hand painted wooden jewellery by designer Claire Mills.

Beneath the Great Wave brings together exceptional ukiyo-e prints from Edo-period Japan. Ukiyo-e — meaning “pictures of the floating world” — were colourful woodblock prints that captured scenes of travel, nature and popular culture during a time of peace and creativity in Japan’s history.  From towering waves and rushing waterfalls to quiet roads and distant mountains, these works reveal moments of beauty, drama and movement that still feel strikingly modern today.
