925 Sterling Silver CZ Maple Leaf Stud Earrings
The maple leaf turns. Every autumn, as the days shorten and the temperature drops, the maple tree stops producing chlorophyll — the green pigment that has colored the leaf all summer — and the colors that were always there but hidden beneath the green are finally revealed: the yellows and oranges and reds that were present in the leaf all along, waiting for the season to change so they could be seen. The maple leaf does not change color. It reveals its true color. The maple leaf is the most dramatic seasonal transformation in the natural world — the tree that spends the summer being green and the autumn being everything else, the leaf that is most beautiful at the moment of its ending, the color that is most vivid when the light is most golden and the air is most clear. In Japan, the tradition of momijigari — "hunting for red leaves" — draws millions of people into the mountains every autumn to witness the maple's transformation. In Canada, the maple leaf is the national symbol, the emblem of the country that is most associated with the beauty of the autumn forest. This 925 sterling silver stud earring sets white zircon CZ stones in the maple leaf design using the inlay technique, in 14K gold or platinum plating, at 1.07g. The earring that wears autumn's most iconic leaf on the earlobe, in every season.
