The Merry Maidens Earrings Agate
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 natural agate, these earrings honour the circle's geometry and the maidens' eternal dance. The pearls evoke the moon that witnessed their transformation; the agate, formed deep within the earth over millennia, connects them to the ancient stones themselves.
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.
