Sparkling Blue Enamel Fairy Skull Earrings With Blue Crystal Accents

Dangling antique gold tone earrings featuring fairy skulls mounted on a sparkling blue enamel back with blue crystal accents. All fairy shrunken heads and skulls are humanly harvested from snapdragon seedpods. Due to the unique aspects inherent to each individual flower earrings may not be exactly identical.
Snapdragons stand for deception and graciousness in the Victorian floriography guide, The Language of Flowers. These seemingly contradictory aspects made snapdragons a unique charm throughout history. Ancient Romans believed that if snapdragons were rubbed over the body that they would appear more youthful. In the Middle Ages snapdragons were thought to break hexes and protect against witchcraft. Victorians believed that if a person concealed a snapdragon flower on their person that they would appear charming and likable. Also a combination of snapdragon and blue hyacinth blooms were given as a plea for forgiveness.
