These crescent shaped earrings are perfect for anyone with affinity for African jewelry. Visually striking and technically sophisticated, African body ornaments often reflect a person's life style, family situation and status. Amulets are also worn as protection against evil and to appease the gods. In West Africa gold jewelry was worn by kings and chiefs as well as their subjects and slaves. This served as a visual demonstration of the prestigious position and power of the tribal leaders and the community as a whole. Much of Africa's jewelry still retains its ceremonial significance today.

These earrings are exactly what I was looking for! I have Queen Puabi's replica necklace from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and they are a perfect match! The earrings are well made and comfortable, and look contemporary or ancient. Very versatile!

I had purchased the same scarab earrings from a museum shop after visiting an Egyptian special exhibit and loved them. I lost one and was so thrilled to be able to find the same earrings again to replace it. They are exactly what I hoped they would be.
