Athena’s olive tree, olive branch earrings in silver and blue zircon

The earrings The "Athena’s olive tree" are a story etched in metal, a tribute to the richness of botany and the power of ancient myths from ancient Greece. This piece of jewelry is a living tale of the legend of Cecrops, where the gods vie for control of Attica, and where the wisdom of Athena prevails over the brute strength of Poseidon.

In the legendary tale, Athena and Poseidon stand before Cecrops, the first king of Attica, to claim sovereignty over the region. Poseidon, with his oceanic might, brings forth a black stallion, symbolizing strength and power. In contrast, Athena offers an olive tree, symbolizing peace, wisdom, and fertility. Recognizing the value of wisdom over brute force, Cecrops chooses Athena as the protector of Athens.

These earrings, shaped like delicate drops, evoke the duality of this divine conflict. The finely engraved olive branches recall Athena’s gift of wisdom, while the teardrop shape alludes to the power of the oceans, representing Poseidon. At the top of each drop, a light blue zircon cabochon, reminiscent of the color of the sky and the grandeur of the divine, adds a touch of majesty to these mythological jewels.

Thus, The "Athena’s olive tree" is a celebration of wisdom, the power of nature, and the cultural heritage of ancient Greece. By wearing them, one connects not only to the timeless beauty of these myths but also to the strength and resilience of the wisdom that guides our actions in the modern world.
