Medea was a young sorceress and witch of magic, niece of Circe. Medea’s lineage links her to that of the great Greek Gods. Medea possessed skills of enchantment, metamorphosis and herbal magic.

The snake I found on my walks called to mind a Goddess of immense knowledge, of changing, rebirth and renewal.

These amethyst earrings combine my new loves - snakes and the color purple. I created a mold from a small garden snake I found and thus the Medea snake earrings were born. Snakes have a long history with humans and many myths surround them.

These earrings are one of a kind and created entirely in sterling silver, they have been stamped with my makers mark and .925 for sterling silver authenticity. The earring post and earring back are both sterling silver.
