The Splash of Gold earrings pay homage to an African parent's love and presence. Though overbearing like the ocean, it has golden strands of unconditional love.
Much like the vast ocean, a parent’s love is deep, unwavering, and sometimes overwhelming. Crafted from luminous shell beads, Splash of Gold earrings symbolise the complexity of this love. The deep oceanic blues represent the strength and depth of a father’s devotion, while the golden web-like patterns echo the warmth of a mother's care—sometimes hidden beneath layers of discipline, resilience, and sacrifice.
Each thread of gold tells a story: of love woven through struggle, of protection disguised as firmness, and of the enduring wisdom passed down through generations. These earrings honour African mothers, ancestors, and all who have shaped us with their strength and sacrifice.
Wear them as a tribute to the ones who came before you—those whose love, like the ocean, shaped the shorelines of your life.
