Lion and sun earrings

Handmade Lion and sun earrings using Persian metal art.

The Lion and Sun (Persian: شیر و خورشید, pronounced: shir o Khurshid) is one of the main emblems of Iran (Persia).

Turquoise is perhaps the oldest stone in man’s history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. It is a stone of protection, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch, healing to the eye, as if carved from an azure heaven and slipped to earth. Its unique shade of blue, often blue-green, lends it name, Turquoise, to all things of this tranquil hue. The delicate veining or mottled webbing in cream or brown is inherent to the stone and serves to enhance its character.

“Lion and Sun Earrings” typically refer to earrings that feature the design or depiction of the lion and sun symbol. This symbol is historically associated with Iran and has been used in Iranian art and culture for centuries.

The lion and sun symbol depicts a lion holding a raised sword in one paw and a sun with a human face in the background. The lion represents bravery and strength, while the sun symbolizes power, light, and enlightenment.

These earrings can be found in various styles and materials, ranging from simple and understated designs to more intricate and detailed ones. They are often made of metals like gold, silver, or brass, and may incorporate gemstones or enamel work to enhance their appearance.

Wearing lion and sun earrings can be a way to express cultural pride, showcase a connection to Iranian heritage, or simply appreciate the artistic and historical significance of the symbol. They can serve as a meaningful and symbolic accessory, representing strength, courage, and cultural identity.

Iranian Art Calligraphy Cup…

I love my Iranian art calligraphy cup! The design is elegant and unique, and the quality of the ceramic is excellent. It shipped fast and came in perfect condition. Using this cup feels like a small daily luxury.

HIGHLY RECOMMONDED

I hardly ever post a review here (specially if I am pleased with my order) but as it was my first time ordering from Persis Collection and it exceeded my expectations, I decided to leave a review. I ordered a couple of beautiful pomegranate-shaped bowls. They were dispatched the next day (got regular email updates from the courier company) and arrived very quickly. The packaging was beautiful, and so were the products. I am extremely happy with my purchase and the service I received and will definitely shop again.
