INSPIRATION
ABOUT
The "Red Sun" earrings are inspired by ancient Egypt and the sun, the central celestial body in their beliefs. Named Ra (or Re), the Egyptian sun god is the creator of the universe in Egyptian mythology.
These earrings adopt a modern form of Egyptian art, taking the shape of two vertically stacked rectangles, reminiscent of an Egyptian cartouche. The cartouche symbolizes everything that the sun surrounds, namely the universe, and serves to protect the name of the Pharaoh. Textured silver with small lines evokes the sun’s rays, creating a diffuse play of light on the surface of the earrings.
At the center of the cartouche is a small cabochon of vivid red carnelian. This stone, frequently used in Egyptian art, symbolizes the sun and served as a protective stone for souls during their journey into the afterlife. Carnelian, with its intense color, evokes the power and vitality of the sun.
Finally, at the bottom part of the cartouche, a gold disc resembles the sun, its warmth, and benevolent light. This detail in gold adds a touch of richness and prestige while accentuating the solar theme of these earrings.
The "Red Sun" earrings celebrate the beauty and deep symbolism of ancient Egypt. By wearing these earrings, you carry with you the legacy of a fascinating civilization and the protective power of the sun. They are perfect for those who appreciate ancient history and jewelry laden with meaning and symbolism.
