Earrings*The Met Store Egyptian Feather Hoop Earrings

Unique art jewelry inspired by The Met collection.

Earrings have long been popular adornments in the Near East, but they weren’t widely worn in Egypt until around 1500 B.C. These hoops reimagine a fabulous Egyptian earring (ca. 1295–1186 B.C.) boasting what was likely intended to represent a feather pattern. We’ve reenvisioned the inlaid lapis lazuli on the original with transparent hand enameling for a little shimmer.
