Statement Stud Earrings: Responsibly sourced sterling silver, two ethically sourced 4.1ct pear-cut Brazilian citrines (8.2ct combined).
These bold statement earrings, named after Maria Primachenko’s Sun-Bird, Rye and Wheat painting, are part of the For Maria Primachenko Collection which celebrates Ukrainian culture. They feature silver wheat ears that curve along the outer border of large pear-cut golden citrines.
Wheat is a staple crop of Ukraine and is a symbol of fertility, abundance and prosperity. It has been a frequently honoured symbol in Ukrainian culture and in traditions such as Pysanka Easter egg decorating and Didukh making, a Christmas decoration and straw talisman. The wheat in these traditions mark the household’s wish for abundance, good health and good harvest.
Sun-Bird, Rye and Wheat was exhibited in Queensland’s Parliament House in 2022 as a showcase of Queensland’s artistic excellence, curated by artisan Gallery. This piece was also selected for artisan Collects (2022), a collaborative initiative between Malki Studio and artisan Gallery that invited collectors to explore jewellery as an art form.
