Althea Earrings – Silver

The Althea Emerald Earrings are ethical sterling silver stud earrings in the shape of a serpent set with emeralds. The fluid body of the snake is formed by the links of a fine rollo chain. Althea is a name that implies healing power, a theme continued by the serpent design. Snakes are archetypal symbols of healing and transformation as represented by the act of shedding their skin. The emeralds focus this rejuvenating energy on the heart, so we may shed outdated belief systems that no longer serve us. The Althea Emerald Earrings are transformative catalysts for emotional healing, empowering us to reveal our truest selves.

Emerald’s verdant tones are considered to be the concentrated essence of nature and as such symbolise freshness, growth, renewal and vitality. Emeralds open the heart chakra, and their rejuvenating energy facilitates emotional healing. This precious gemstone was favoured by Cleopatra and was considered sacred to the goddess Venus.

For centuries, the serpent symbol has woven its way through diverse cultures as a symbol of healing, transformation and primal energy. It is a complex and multifaceted symbol that evokes notions of renewal and inner potential.
