Sterling Silver Cubic Zirconia Emerald Drop Shamrock Earrings

In ancient times, a tiny three-leafed plant bloomed far and wide and laid a carpet of green all over the limestone hills of Ireland. The Druids knew the Shamrock had mystical powers. To them, its three leaves were a natural sign of a sacred number. This little plant was even said to warn of an approaching storm by turning up its leaves. According to legend, St Patrick himself plucked a Shamrock from the ground, using the three petals to explain the blessed Trinity - one God, three people, Father, Son and Holy Spirit - helping to convert the Irish people to Christianity.

These sterling silver drop earrings make a charming pair. Adorned with beautiful green cubic zirconia crystals, these earrings have lever-back closures for secure and comfortable wear. Each one has a Shamrock drop with heart-shaped leaves and a curving stalk. Each leaf features a round emerald green cubic zirconia stone.
