Celebrate the beauty and history of coastal life with Patsy Kane’s sterling silver New England Dory Earrings, an original design inspired by the iconic fishing dory. Handcrafted in New England, these earrings capture the elegance and functionality of the dory, a boat that has been a steadfast companion to fishermen for centuries.

The dory is a flat-bottomed, lightweight boat with a high bow and stern, designed for stability and ease of rowing. First used in the 16th century, dories became a staple of New England’s fishing industry, particularly for offshore cod fishing. Their simple yet ingenious design made them easy to stack on larger ships and launch into open waters.

These earrings pay homage to this enduring maritime legacy, blending historical inspiration with modern craftsmanship.

Dory earrings are 3/8" x 1/4" and come packaged in a vintage chart lined tin.

Made in Marblehead, Massachusetts.
