Lotus Bud Drop Earrings

A pair of sterling silver drop earrings with geometric lotus bud pendants.

These earrings form part of a range accompanying the British Museum exhibition Feminine power: the divine to the demonic.

The drop earrings are crafted from sterling silver. The lotus flower, also known as the water lily, is the national flower of India, and is a fundamental symbol in Buddhist culture. The white petals of the flower are associated with purity and spiritual ascension of mind and body, as they grow through muddy water to bloom in the bright sunshine above. Buddhists internationally recognise the lotus as signifying the holy seat of the Buddha.

A delightful jewellery gift.
