Aster Earrings - Single Drop
- Handmade Botanical Jewellery
Elegant yet dainty at its core, the Aster is a beautiful daisy-like flower with yellow centres and ray-like petals. There are an estimated 180 different species of Aster, varying in different hues of purple, pink, blue, white, and yellow. Part of the same family as Sunflowers, the Aster’s name originates from the Greek word for “star” as a reference to the flower’s star-shaped flowerheads. The uniqueness of the Aster or Sunflower family is that each flower is composed of many small flowers in a disk-like flowerhead. Even the petals are individual flowers.
Asters are often considered a symbol of elegance, love, and patience. Additionally, each colour holds further meaning. Purple, the most common Aster colour, also symbolises wisdom and nobility while white is a symbol of purity and innocence.
Materials: The Aster earrings are cast in hand patinated bronze with pale purple cast glass flowers, each with a 24kt gold plated centre. The wires are 925 silver with a 24kt gold plating.
Measures: 0.93" L x 0.64" W
