Vesica Piscis Threader Earrings

Simple and elegant, these vesica piscis threader earrings feature an open marquise, or vesica piscis, shape. They are available in sterling, 14K gold filled, and 14K rose gold filled metals. Earrings are hand-formed with 18 gauge wire, which is slightly thicker than most ear wires.  The vesica piscis, or mandorla is a sacred geometrical shape formed by the intersection of two circles. It is prevalent in religious art, and is a symbol of the union of opposites as well as the divine feminine principle. Gold filled metal is a step above gold-plated, as it contains many layers of gold on top of a base metal core. The gold does not wear off, which can sometimes happen with gold-plated jewelry.
