Butterfly Monarch Embera Earrings
With over 3,642 butterfly species found in Colombia (the world's largest variety) it was high time to add them to our line. It truly is a mariposa paradise!
Around the world, butterflies have functional and spiritual significance. Physically, they play a fundamental role in pollination and feeding other animals. Symbolically, Garden with Wings writes, they signify "spiritual rebirth, transformation, change, hope, and life. The magnificent, yet short life of the butterfly closely mirrors the process of spiritual transformation and serves to remind us that life is short."
Hand woven by indigenous Embera Chami artisans, these seed bead earrings represent a piece of Colombian culture, fusing modern designs with ancient tribal craftsmanship. To the Embera, butterflies are a good omen.
Each pair features beautiful bead detailing in a unique FOSTERIE exclusive small batch pattern.
Materials: Seed beads
Size: Approximately 2.5 inches wide, 2 inches long from post
Ashleigh notes: The light of the sun impacts everything about the survival of the Monarch. In this way, they are beings of light and can detect its various sources that are unknown and unseen to us. Monarchs allow the opportunity to stop and reflect on all the light in your life. This butterfly reflects accomplishment, fortune, ambition, and energy and are all about taking action in the real world, not about daydreaming and staying still. Place this pin on your jacket or bag as a harbinger of hope for these messages.
