Sterling Silver Green CZ 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.

This gorgeous, sparkling pendant is made of 100% 925 sterling silver. Each of the three heart-shaped leaves is a green cubic zirconia crystal. The accompanying 18" chain is dainty and subtle.
