The Merry Maidens Earrings Red Blue
Price:
£122.00
The Merry Maidens are nineteen stones standing in a perfect circle on the windswept moors of West Penwith in Cornwall, United Kingdom. Legend has it they are young women turned to stone for dancing on the Sabbath — and that on certain nights, when the moon is full, the stones still sway to music only they can hear.
Crafted in 925 silver with lustrous pearls and vibrant glass beads in red and blue, these earrings honour the circle's geometry and the maidens' eternal dance. The pearls evoke the moon that witnessed their transformation; the coloured beads reflect the joy and defiance of those who danced beneath the stars.
Wear them as a talisman of freedom — a reminder that some moments are worth being immortalised in stone, or silver and pearls.
Each pair of earrings comes with an extended story about the Merry Maidens and their legend.
These earrings are made to order. Please note your preferred combination of red and blue beads in the order notes at checkout, and Oriole will make them just for you.
