Tree of Life Earrings in 925 Silver, Abalone and Zircons

Abalone

This term, deriving from the Spanish term abulon, identifies a group of molluscs belonging to the class of Gastropods, family Haliotidae, genus Haliotis, characterized by the fact of having only one valve, which covers the animal like a roof, so according to some they could also be classified as "marine snails". In the world there are about 100 different species of Haliotis, scattered along the coastal waters of every continent, but only about fifteen of these are bred for food and ornamental purposes. Abalone is widespread in all seas, including the Mediterranean, and in its many varieties it has dimensions ranging from those of a fruit plate to those of a large tureen (approximately 10 to 50 cm in diameter). In Italy it is present only on the eastern coast of Sicily, where it is caught in late spring and summer. The shell, of different color from species to species, vaguely resembles an ear; for this reason in Italy, in addition to the classic names of abalone, it is also called ear of the sea, royal patella, ear of Venus and, in Sicily, bull's eye. The innermost layer of the shell is composed of nacre, which in many species is highly iridescent, resulting in a range of strong and changing colors that make it attractive as a decorative object.

Elegant, majestic, luxuriant: the tree of life is a recurring symbol in ancient mythology, a symbol that still fascinates many people today.

Present in different cultures with different names, the tree of life is generally considered as the source of life, the place from which every living being originates. Life is represented by the 3 elements that make up the tree and each of these represents an aspect of life itself.

• Roots, to be firm, must go deep.
• Trunk, solid and resistant, I support several branches.
• Leaves, numerous.
• Fruits, abundant only in one period of the year, therefore precious.

Combining these elements we can read that the tree of life is a kind of wish for a life built on solid roots, which represent family and relationships. A life that he hopes will also be full and rich, like the numerous leaves, and intense, trying to seize the moment, not to miss opportunities, just like ripe fruit.

The tree of life is also accompanied by 4 elements: air, water, earth, fire. These elements support the tree and keep it in contact with the rest of the world: water and the sun (fire) help it grow, the earth feeds it, the air makes it part of nature.
