Labriformes Earrings
Earring (pair)
4 g per ear
30 x 16 x 7 mm
Sterling silver (935)
One-of-a-kind
Cleaner wrasse of the order Labriformes have dedicated themselves to serving other marine creatures. They enter into a so-called "cleaning symbiosis" with their "clients," keeping them free of parasites, dead skin cells, and food scraps—in return, they are not eaten by the usually much larger (predatory) fish that benefit from this service. An "Act of Service" within the oceanic world.
This piece was hand-modeled in wax and cast using the lost-wax casting process. The design is a fusion of a shackle and features of a cleaner wrasse, including a movable droplet detail. This pair of earrings is a unique piece and will not be reproduced in this form. It will be shipped the next business day.
