Blossom Earrings
Inspired by cherry blossoms and dogwood flowers, the Blossom Earrings join the Poppy Earrings with beautifully detailed laser-cut flowers and 3 dimensional stamens that are attached by hand and have an elegant natural curve.
These earrings are perfect for any formal event, floral dress or a white blouse and jeans. Honestly, they just look so good on!
The earrings are made of solid brass and measure 2" long on brass French hook ear wires.
Cherry blossoms (sakura) primarily symbolize the beautiful but fleeting nature of life, renewal, and new beginnings, especially in Japan, representing mortality and the transient beauty of existence, while also signifying love, friendship, feminine power (in China), and hope for the future. Their short bloom period reminds people to cherish the present moment, linking to Buddhist ideas of impermanence and Shinto appreciation for nature's cycles.
Dogwood blossoms symbolize rebirth, renewal, and hope, deeply tied to Christian legends of the crucifixion, with their four petals forming a cross and red spots representing blood, signifying resurrection and purity. They also represent strength, endurance, and affection, a meaning used in Victorian times to convey deep love or a request for reciprocation, with the tree's strong wood symbolizing reliability.
