These earrings are an homage to corn! Mexicans call themselves the "children of corn," descendants of people whose religious pantheon included three corn gods. Cornstalks were common patterns in ancient Mexican art and between the Guatemalan and U.S. borders grow at least 32 varieties of corn, each with various sub-varieties, developed in response to climate and soil differences.
These are works of art. Absolutely love these earrings. Cast in .925 Mexican silver with amber.
Sterling silver filigree work. About 2 inches long.
Approx 14 grams.
