Statement, large 'Matsya' (fish) earrings

$357.00

Design code: PBZ-1440-ER

Handcrafted in sterling silver with fine hand-painted enamel work in red, turquoise, and navy blue enamel.

Which other folk art motif can speak the loudest about tradition and symbolism that is inherent in it, than one of the most common and all-pervasive of them all- the 'matsya' (fish)?

Wear these dramatic earrings only if you are prepared to be stopped and asked about them every few minutes- for the 'matsya' is a real beauty. Spare elegance, contemporary aesthetic, and exquisite attention to detail. A design that is at the same time very modern and yet timeless. And one with great poetic and cultural resonance.

Trivia: Did you know that fish in folk art is a common symbol of fertility, abundance, conjugal happiness, providence, and a charm against the evil eye? Now you do. :)

Dimensions: 5.6 cm long and 2.1 cm at the widest. Push-post closure.
