The Egyptians saw the lotus flower as a symbol of rebirth. It closes at night and sinks underwater, then re-emerges and blooms again in the morning . Thus the flower became a natural symbol of creation and the sun. The lotus comes in pink, blue and white. These assymetrical earrings mimic those colors with faceted angelite, faceted garnet, and white and brass sparkly chain. The lotus are depicted in both their open and closed stages made from stainless steel. Both earings hang 4 inches long from brass leverback hooks.
