SCALLOP EARRINGS



Regular price $1,500.00
The scallop earrings are inspired by the symbolism of ancient Roman art and architecture. This is a prevalent theme portrayed in buildings and monuments all over the city, as well as in paintings and sculptures. In ancient Roman art, the scallop is depicted as a symbol of fertility and new life. One example we love is the birth of Venus painting by Sandro Botticelli, where Roman Goddess Venus is symbolically born and rising from a shell.
Bold but delicate, the scallop motif that is found in so many familiar corners of Rome served as inspiration for this timeless piece.
