The history of the jewelry

The Bactrian Gold collection celebrates the unification of diverse cultures and art that occurred during the late first millennium B.C., marked by the burgeoning of the silk trade. 

These Bactrian Heart Earrings with Faceted Carnelian is represented through the heart symbol, which is thought to have been derived from the leaves and seeds of the silphium plant, which resemble hearts. Despite its historical roots, the idea of merging cultures encapsulated by the collection remains pertinent today.

Materials: Carnelian, pewter beads with gold finish, and ear wire closure.
