ORIGAMI CRANE Earrings - Threads

Tiny handcrafted origami crane earrings created and crafted at my kitchen table.

Delicate little cranes float lightly on the ear...you'll hardly know you are wearing them. Combined with silver hypoallergenic threads and a feather, these earrings are simply eye-catching.

Each crane is triple coated for longevity and comes packaged carefully in their own nest to keep them in when not wearing and for protection during postage.

In Japan the crane is viewed as a national treasure. The Japanese refer to the crane as the "bird of happiness". The large, majestic bird is a strong and elegant creature believed, in earlier times, to live for a thousand years. It was also believed that cranes had the ability to grant wishes and answer prayers. The crane's tall stance and powerful flight pattern make it the perfect symbol of power and strength, representing good fortune and longevity. Cranes are also monogamous creatures, with long-term bonding making them a symbol of loyalty and permanence.
