925 Sterling Silver CZ Sunflower Daisy Flower Stud Earrings
The sunflower is the flower that follows the sun. The scientific name for this behavior is heliotropism — from the Greek "helios" (sun) and "tropos" (turning) — and it describes the way that young sunflowers track the movement of the sun across the sky from east to west during the day, then reset overnight to face east again, ready for the next morning's light. The sunflower does not simply grow toward the light the way that most plants do — it actively follows the sun, turning its face to track the source of its energy throughout the day, the flower that is most devoted to the light, most committed to the warmth, most faithful to the source of all growth and all life. This is why the sunflower has been the symbol of adoration and loyalty in cultures from ancient Peru — where the Inca worshipped the sunflower as the image of their sun god Inti, and the priestesses of the sun wore golden sunflower crowns — to the court of Louis XIV of France, the Sun King, who adopted the sunflower as his personal symbol because it always faces the sun, always turns toward the king of the sky. The daisy — the flower of innocence, of "he loves me, he loves me not," of the meadow in summer — shares the sunflower's radial form: the ring of petals around the central disc, the flower that is simultaneously the most simple and the most perfect geometric form in the natural world. The CZ sunflower daisy flower stud earring takes the most devoted and most radiant of all the flowers and renders it in 925 sterling silver and white zircon CZ — the sparkling CZ that fills the flower form with diamond-look brilliance, the fine jewelry piece that wears the symbol of devotion to the light on the earlobe. This 925 sterling silver stud earring sets white zircon CZ stones in the sunflower daisy flower design using the inlay technique, in 14K gold or platinum plating, at 2.68g. The earring that follows the light.
