Sun & Moon Earrings | Gold Crescent Pair

Description
Gold tone crescent moons paired with suns, hung as drops. Two bodies that have been set against each other in every symbolic system anyone has built.

The pairing is the oldest opposition there is: hot and cold, waking and dreaming, gold and silver, and in alchemy sol and luna, whose union is the whole point of the work. What makes it more than a tidy binary is that the two are also the same size in our sky. The sun is about four hundred times wider than the moon and about four hundred times further away, which is a coincidence with no explanation and the only reason total eclipses look the way they do.

Worn for balance in the plain sense: the two halves of a person that are supposed to be in conversation rather than in charge of each other.

How to Wear It

• Wear them when the two halves of something need to be in balance.
• They swing, so they read better with hair up or short.
• Nickel free and lead free, so they suit sensitive ears.
