ABOUT
The "Rose Window" earrings are inspired by the majestic rosettes found in many Gothic churches from the medieval period across Europe. A rosette is a circular ornament in the form of a stylized flower or star, composed of harmonious curves inscribed within a circle. These magnificent windows not only serve as important sources of light for religious buildings but are often adorned with symbolic and religious motifs.
Our earrings are crafted from embossed silver discs, offering remarkable volume and presence. The center of each earring features a delicate floral motif, while the edge is decorated with a frieze of quatrefoils. This ogival pattern, consisting of four equal arcs traced from a square, is typical of Gothic art. The trefoil shape, prevalent in medieval architecture and sculpture, symbolizes in Christian tradition the virtues of hope, faith, love, and luck.
At the center of the earrings, a light mauve zircon cabochon is set, reminiscent of the softness and serenity of light filtered through Gothic cathedral stained glass windows. The delicate hue of the zircon subtly captures and reflects light, evoking the play of colors in historic stained glass.
To add a touch of dynamism and elegance, small silver tassels adorn the lower part of each earring, creating graceful movement and playing with light to produce sparkling reflections. These elements give the earrings a classic and sophisticated allure, perfect for those who wish to wear a piece of medieval art history.
Wearing the "Rose Window" earrings is to embrace a part of Gothic heritage, celebrating the art and spirituality of that era through a modern and elegant piece of jewelry.
