Imagine relaxing on your back in a forest, (or better yet, go do it!) and looking up into the canopy to see the patterns of sky created by tree branches that are almost touching. This is the result of crown shyness. Crown shyness is the phenomenon that occurs in forests in which the top branches of certain species of trees do not touch or overlap. This allows for a more even distribution of sunlight and the result is healthier individual trees and thus the forest as a whole. A clear metaphor and lesson for human society can be found here. This jewelry is inspired by our precious forests and the trees that comprise them.
These jeweler’s brass earrings measures 5/8” wide by ¾” tall, and are a total of 1 1/8” with the niobium earring wires. Niobium is the ultimate hypo-allergenic metal. They have a finish on them which will prevent tarnishing. And surprise! The stars in these earrings shine in the dark if exposed to a bright light first.
They arrive in a gift box with an explanatory insert.
