Description
These sweet earrings are part of my Asmi collection. A little bit boho with ancient vibes. These are hand-stamped silver with a border of pearls. Asmi is Sanskrit for “Be”, which is the inspiration for this collection. Measure 1 3/8″. Handmade shepherd hook ear-wires. Sterling silver.
About pearls: Throughout history, the pearl, with its warm inner glow and shimmering iridescence, has been one of the most highly prized and sought after gems. In ancient Rome, pearls were considered the ultimate symbol of wealth and social standing. The Greeks held the pearl in high esteem for both its unrivaled beauty and its association with love and marriage. Pearls are the birthstone for June.
What is a cultured pearl? An oyster or mollusk is artificially “seeded” with a tiny grain of sand or other object. The mollusk then excretes a coating to protect itself from the irritant. Several layers are accreted, creating a real pearl.
