Hand-Painted Purple Gothic Y2K Earrings, Witchy Jewelry for Alt Souls, Tattoo Girls & Gothic Weddings

I made these gothic Y2K earrings the way I make all my pieces, slowly, with my hands, and with a heart full of stories.
Each tiny face was shaped and painted by me, sealed with care, and crowned with intricate details that whisper of strange fairytales and midnight dreams.

They’re a fragment of my world, where the beauty is a little eerie, a little sweet, and completely unforgettable. The kind of jewelry you don’t just wear… you keep, like a charm.

Design Inspiration

These gothic Y2K earrings came from a memory.
When I was younger, I kept a little box of trinkets, odd things I found beautiful. A broken porcelain doll’s head. A pressed flower. A charm shaped like a wolf.
I wanted to create something that felt like opening that box again.

The doll face in the center is framed like a rare bloom, surrounded by glass beads that catch the light in soft, haunting glimmers. Above her rests an animal spirit, a quiet guardian. Beside her, a figure stands, maybe a ghost, maybe a storyteller.

I never tell exactly what they are, because part of the magic is letting you decide. In a way, these handmade goth earrings are an invitation: to carry a little mystery with you, and to wear your own story.

How It’s Made

1. Hand-shaped in stone clay. Every face and curve formed by my fingers.

2. Naturally air-dried. No ovens, just time.

3. Refined, shaped, and sanded for a smooth, wearable finish.

4. Painted by hand with custom-mixed colors for that deep, witchy purple.

5. Decorated with tiny beadwork and gothic details.

6. Sealed with a protective finish to help guard the art.

7. Assembled with care in either stud or clip-on style.

8. Final quality check before shipping, so your piece arrives ready to wear.

Order Processing

Made to Order
I start creating your piece only after you place your order, so what you get is fresh from my hands, not pulled from a shelf. That’s the kind of slow art I believe in.

Care Instructions

• Avoid water: These are not waterproof. Take them off before swimming, showering, or sweating it out.
• Keep them dry: If they get damp, gently wipe them with an alcohol pad and let them fully air dry.
• Store properly: Place in a soft pouch or jewelry box when not in use.
• Be gentle when cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid chemicals. For metal parts, a slightly damp cloth is fine.
• Avoid scratching: Keep them away from sharp edges or rough surfaces.
• No perfumes or lotions: Don’t spray directly or apply cream over them. Let your skin dry first.
• Avoid chemicals and heavy work: Don’t wear while cleaning, doing chores, or handling harsh substances. Sweat, detergents, and friction can damage the finish or cause oxidation over time.
• Even high-quality metals like solid gold, sterling silver, or gold-plated parts may naturally oxidize and darken over time with wear.

NOTE

Each piece is 100% handmade in my home studio. From mixing colors to shaping and detailing, every step is done by hand.
You might notice tiny marks, slight variations, or a bit of asymmetry, that’s part of the charm.
No two are exactly the same. It’s not a flaw, it’s what makes each one unique.

My work is 100% original. If you see similar items elsewhere, they’re not made with the same materials, or the same care. JoyGothic is the only official source.

🕯️ For You

Believe this: you can be soft, wild, rebellious, and free however you want.
Own your edges. Stay true.
We’re all fighting to keep our fire alive, breaking through the darkness, dreaming our way to freedom.
And no matter what, we shout it loud and clear:
Femininity is power. Women are always beautiful. Always have been, always will be.

Final Thought

Every pair of these hand-painted purple gothic Y2K earrings carries a little piece of my time, my hands, and my heart.

About Me

I’m a deeply emotional and sometimes pessimistic person. Making handmade pieces has been my healing, it’s where I find joy so real that I often lose track of time and forget to eat. I just want to do what I love and support myself, so my prices reflect that balance.

When I first started selling online, I faced a lot of pain from stolen designs and copycats. It was tough. I cried more than once. But the kindness and support from strangers like you kept me going. You’re more than customers, you’re friends I haven’t met yet.

This little shop is a piece of my healing. I hope it brings you a piece of yours, too. Thank you for being part of this journey with me.
