Description

Turquoises in pieces of jewellery are often used because of their symbolic colour, which is reminiscent of the flowers of the forget-me-not. They were often given as gifts with this meaning and were always intended to remind the wearer of the bearer. These ear studs feature domed flowers in the center, which are set with a dense pavée of sky-blue Persian turquoise. The turquoises are set in silver, while an openwork gold frame frames the turquoises on the outside. If you look closely, you will see that the frames have slightly different patterns and are slightly different widths. We think that the elements were originally created in the late 19th century as part of larger pieces of jewellery. In more recent times, they were then attached to the ear studs and thus became earrings. The clip earrings, which came to us from London, are a wonderful way to revive the beautiful tradition of "forget-me-not gifts" today.
