925 Sterling Silver CZ Crescent Moon Hoop Earrings
The crescent moon is the moon in its most recognizable form — the sliver of light that appears in the sky in the days after the new moon, the curved shape that has been the symbol of the moon in every culture that has ever looked up at the night sky. The crescent moon is the symbol of Islam, appearing on the flags of more than a dozen nations. It is the symbol of Artemis, the Greek goddess of the hunt and the moon. It is the symbol of the Ottoman Empire, of the Byzantine Empire, of ancient Carthage. It is the symbol of feminine power, of intuition, of the cycles of nature that govern the tides, the seasons, and the rhythms of life. In fine jewelry, the crescent moon is the shape that carries all of this — the curved arc that is simultaneously the most ancient and the most contemporary symbol in the celestial vocabulary, the shape that appears in the sky for only a few days each month and is more beautiful for its brevity. This 925 sterling silver hoop earring sets white zircon CZ stones in the crescent moon design using the inlay technique on a classic hoop, in 14K gold or platinum plating, at 1.38g. The earring that wears the moon on the hoop.
Why You'll Love It
-
Crescent Moon — The Universal Symbol — The 🌙 crescent moon — the curved arc that has been the symbol of the moon, of feminine power, and of the divine in every culture that has ever looked up at the night sky. The crescent that appears on the flags of nations, in the mythology of ancient Greece, in the iconography of the Ottoman Empire — the most universally recognized celestial symbol in human history, the shape that carries the meaning of the moon in its most essential and most beautiful form.
-
Moon on Hoop — The Celestial Circle — The crescent moon set on the hoop creates the most poetic combination in the collection — the moon that appears to orbit the circle of the hoop, the curved arc that echoes the curve of the hoop itself. The hoop that frames the crescent moon perfectly, the circle that makes the moon appear to be in its natural environment — the sky — rendered in 925 sterling silver and white zircon CZ.
-
White CZ — The Sparkling Moon — White zircon CZ stones set in the inlay technique across the crescent moon design — the diamond-look brilliance of high-quality CZ filling the curved arc of the crescent, creating the earring that appears to be a moon set with diamonds. The CZ that catches the light with the same cool, luminous quality that moonlight has — the sparkle that is brilliant without being harsh, the light that illuminates without blinding.
-
The Celestial Pair — The CZ crescent moon hoop pairs naturally with the CZ star hoop earring — the moon and the star, the two most iconic celestial symbols in fine jewelry, the pair that creates a complete night sky look when worn together. The moon for the first hole; the star for the second. The celestial ear stack that tells the story of the night sky.
-
Two Plating Options — Choose 14K gold plating for the warm, classic finish that gives the crescent moon its most traditional and most luminous expression — the gold moon that catches the light with the warmth of fine jewelry. Or choose platinum plating for the cool, modern white metal look that gives the crescent moon its most celestial and most authentic expression — the silver moon, because the moon has always been silver.
